Gosh, the level of personal attack on here is actually quite scary..(I wonder how brave many of you would be..if it were not an anonomous forum
)
Just for the record..once again, the idea of the SSTR is repugnant to me.
I believe it cheapens our profession, reduces the selection process in many cases to those who can afford/cant afford it, and worst of all it artificially creates a glass ceiling to those who have done the "hard-yards" in air taxis and T/Props.
Be that as it may, there is a market for it and legitimate operators are making money from desperate/inexperienced candidates.
Until such time as airlines run out of suitable applicants who can afford a Type on their license, this situation will continue. After all....when you attend oxford aviation on an intergrated course....you expect to walk onto an A320/B737 dont you...
