When are you airline guys going to realise that as a airline pilot you don't have what it takes to make the grade in the RAAF as an military captain?
Accept your lot, join as an FLGOFF [only changed that one slightly
]( you'll no doubt get through the interview process without any problems ) and then learn how it's all done and progress through the ranks like the rest of us!
Rather simple really when you think about it!
Let's face it, you can afford to take the pay cut, you paid for your training!
