404 Titan
Fair enough when you are talking world wide however as always the concept of "God's own country" comes into play when talking about our special corner of the world.
Paying for your endorsement is not the way it should be however, if I were a betting man, I would bet it will not essentially change - maybe tinkered with a bit but still remain a cost to the pilot one way or another.
Up to each individual to decide what they want out of their aviation career, where they want it (or are willing to live) and what they are willing/not willing to do to achieve their aims and goals.
Even Qantas proper are getting into the game - if the rumour is true that new 737 Captains will be on reduced pay then they are effectively paying for their "Command" endorsement.
Very surprised to see that in Qantas proper and does make me wonder how long before the Sim/training system is made more cost effective like other airlines in Australia.
Can't happen?? Wanna make a bet???
