Regrettably the world of civil aviation is seemingly content to encourage pilots with the bare minimum of experience to become instructors. This is because they are cheap and will be keen to 'build hours' in order to go and sit in the RHS of a people-tube for some low-cost airline as soon as they possibly can.
Bigger FTOs used to be able to attract ex-airline pilots or ex-RAF QFIs to their organisations, but the onset of JARs and the scaling down of the military is reducing this source. Hence FTOs are having to look at people with lower and lower experience whilst at the same time exporting much of their basic training to the USA. Hence we are in a very unhealthy situation in the UK regarding flying training opportunities unless we merely employ desperate young 'hours builders' who will be off like a shot when any airline job comes up............
