Hi Guys,
Firstly, I was lucky enough to sit in the skippers seat upon arrival at our gate in Brisbane yesterday, having a look at the flight deck, and a conversation with the FO. A sincere thankyou to the QF crew, Skipper and FO for being so inviting and open. For someone grinding out their CPL, it was easily the most motivating experience to date. Highly recommend it to anyone in the midst of their Commercial training, a really good source of inspiration to keep up the hard work.
Secondly, (and I understand there's no movement into QF at the moment) in relation to QF's direct entry minima, is the advertised 500 fixed-wing command a realistic figure? Or does a competitive application include 1000 Single-Command and X hours twin? As someone on the brink of an Instructor Rating, I'm logically trying to assess my options and determine my best angle of attack. Would love to hear from any successful SO's, and the position from which they joined QF.
Thanks in advance, and a Happy new year to all.
