Is that Right! then again it's those students from overseas (Be it India, China, Europe or Disneyland) are the ones giving the thriving local young instructors in Bankstown an oppurtunity to build their own precious hours whom have got bugger all experience in the first place to teach someone else ! Oh the wonders of flying into a GAAP "ATC;Follow the preceding 172......ABC; Which One" it's much tame now I hear

Quote ; "Capitaine72" "Just think those 250 hr pilots will have a command in two years!!!!"

Give us an example of one known case.... you indicate the pilots starting with 250 TT get command in a two year period of around 2000+ TT, would love to see one with log book evidence of operarting commercially. Remember all the machines there are nearly brand new or well into the modern World, no manufacturer and/or airline with half a brain cell is going to allow any under performed commands of these machines in that complex environment. It starts at the C&T basically. Any C & T who allows Command upgrades because of the nature of the country and company pressures shouldn't be one (be it Disneyland, Australia, Indonesia, China or India). Get over it you arm chair instructors !

Like Some other people have mentioned it's getting a bit saturated in the bottom end of the scale, takes under a year to pump a freshie out, So Mr Singh better get over the fact that just because one gets a licence out of a flying school it doesn't mean you are all good to go to walk around calling yourself a Kapitaan.... "It's a licence to Learn !! "

At this stage the demand seems to be more on the top end of the scale for DEC's TRE's and so on. Basically anyone with time on type or similar and with some common sense.

My two cents worth or was it two rupee worth !!

Smoothie ....

ps ; Pappadums & Gaarlic Naan...yummo
