Journalism or not, the AF mag has always taken the Pilots side when it comes to the employer.Renumaration issues aside, feedback from the students themselves was good so far which is most credible and the program seems like a great opportunity not only for the young guns but for the older cats too.I totally concur with what you said in regards to captain retention, no expirience in the cockpit..command upgrade but this may just have bought Qlink enough time to fill the gap for a while without raising the pay and maybe enough time for the "Pilot shortage" to calm down back to the GOOD OL' DAYS!
and then I'm sure we all know there will be no such thing as Pilot retention issues anymore.It will be one of those magic times we can look back on unless ofcoarse someone digs a hole and finds some oil on ayers rock!
