You need experienced Captains to run the so called ICUS programs that are being implemented. Its all well and good to bring in the cadets as the solution to the pilot shortage for the company but without the Training Captains to babysit the Cadets how do they ever expect these cadets to become captains??? CH and NH will be pretty busy if they are the last two left in 6 months.
There are also too many without the 500hrs multi slipping through the recruitment process simply to put bums on seats before the end of the financial year statement is released!
Them wages better go up soon... and how.
