Except in this case they do have a job, and a relatively very good paying job at that, starting without any or very little experience, getting lots of hours as S76 co-pilot. Probably better paid as a co-pilot in Macau than as a multi-engine Captain almost anywhere else. To their credit HeliExpress are giving a flying start to some that ordinarily wouldn't get a go anywhere else in the industry, at least without first having some uselful experience. It's just that the flying start doesn't automatically lead to anything else for the reason described above.
