Eastern Airways Scam
Have you heard the lastest flying scam? Eastern Airways offered cadetships to pilots, with promises and written confirmations, that Eastern Airways would pay for type ratings as long as successful cadets maintained "satisfactory levels". Pilot cadets needed 150 hours and ground exams all passed. They HAD to train full time with the most expensive training school in the country, which was recommended by Eastern Airways. Reality is these cadets have paid a fortune for CPL and IR training, have given up jobs, homes etc and are now left high and dry by changes in Eastern Airways management. Be ware out there!
