Re: Instructors----where Are They????

So its really easy for a grade 3 to find work then?

Even those who are willing to be paid only by the casual flying hour and wait around doing any kind of odd job (for free) around the place just in case a punter comes in the door for trial flight find it difficult to get a start.

Lets be realistic, there are plenty of young G3's around who are more than willing to be exploited who cannot get much of a start and when they do its a real struggle. No surprise an industry like that is on its way out.

And as for LAME's, there are quite a few of them willing to cut eachother's throats to get the odd the customer. How many time have you heard ' the last bloke did this wrong and this needed doing etc etc. Aren't you lucky I saved you from him?'

The truth is the industry is contracting - and probably destroying itself through what the MBA'a call 'destructive rivalry'. The we CASA coming up with so called 'user pays'. That will really help!
