Seniority
Jetnut
Before you shout your mouth off check your facts. I have flown for one of the middle east carriers for the last ten years. We do have a cadet scheme, like most airlines do, but there is no jumping up the line, as promotion to command is done purely on hours requirement and seniority,i.e if your hours are good and your seniority number is good you will be put forward for command course regardless of nationality expat or local.
