If that is confirmed then that has got to hurt. Also The supply of experienced
candidates may dry up as people with any experience will have other options, especially in the current climate, which don't involve paying that much for an obsolete TP type rating. I would be interested how that figure can be justified. I refuse to beieve the TR on it's own costs that much.
If this is true Logan will be left with nothing but a supply of 200 hr (or dare I say 150 hr integrated) FO's. None of whom really want to be there and all of whom are just treading water till the phone call from a jet. What incentive is there for anyone who actually loves flying and the area to join.
Incidentally do these arrangements apply to D/E skippers?
