Hey guys, I finished the fasttrack program just a little while ago, just got my mecir test next week. Yeah it`s hard work, but i managed to get through commuting 45 mins each way every day plus working part time 2-3 days a week (nights) for some extra cash. Ppl will give you crap about the skippers deal, but so what, times are changing, and what you don`t realise is that while it is expensive, add up all the costs of relocating and getting paid **** living out in the middle of nowhere over a few years, and compare that with a salary and constant work close to home, and the a/c type you`ll be flying - all of a sudden it doesn`t seem so bad... initial costs are high but remember you are staking money to prove yourself because you have NO experience, and if you can hack it then it will be a good investment. Lots of places now expect you to pay for your own endorsement. I don`t see anyone giving QF cadets a hard time for paying $90k for there training with only a guarantee of 6 months work experience....
