If there's such a shortage of instructors, why not get civilians in there????
Give them the job, rather than to some Zim-guy who's last flown in 1984
before the Jet A1 ran out...
Who pays the day they bend our metal? The Zimbabwean taxpayer? Sincerely doubt that. What a load of KAK.
Civvie instructors do 20 hours patter for their intial rating. Give them the 35-40 hours flight training to get them up to speed with the military equipment, and guaranteed the quality of instruction will be miles higher. And they're used to PAYING for their own board and lodging
Makes me want to
