the only way to stop this is to make a law against it....otherwise its gonna keep on happening weather people like it or not.
Im sure there was big uproar when people started to self sponsor type ratings and now its the norm.
So now people are going that extra step and paying for line training. I feel that will become the new norm.
You cant blame the airlines- they are a business after all
You cant blame companies such as Eagle Jet, again a business
You cant blame the noobs - they just want to get an edge(they think its an edge) anyway they can.
If the CAA like Brazil put a regulation in place stating that a person cannot paying to fly when the flight is carrying fee paying passengers/cargo and the company is making money from it, then problem would be solved.
People who go on and on about Mummy and Daddy paying are just jealous cuz given the opportunity of their parents paying for this sort of training 9 out of ten would do it
Times are changing and I feel nothing is gonna happen to stop it so we all might as well get used to it.
