You could almost gaurantee that you'll be flying a jet before any Rex cadet!
Rex have them so tightly locked in that it'll cost them a fortune to get out their pox deal, meaning their stuck their for at least 7 years....
GA route, couple of years up north 1000-1500hrs then maybe on a metro or similar turbo prob, then JQ or
VB or TGR or maybe even QF..
Sounds a whole lot better than being stuck in the RHS of a ****e box clapped out saab!
What do you mean locked in? They can leave anytime as long as they pay back whatever is left on the loan +%10 interest - which is still a lower rate than most peronsal loans anyway.
GA route for a couple of years - won't that be far, far worse pay than REX's base $42K?. Even the "
maybe" flow on to a Metro is still going to be worse pay.
I'd prefer to operate a REX Saab than a typical GA aircraft. Clapped out Saabs? Most Rex Saabs are now B+ models and are less than 15 years old. Have you seen the state of GA planes in Australia? The average age is over 30 years!
Yes there are question marks over the cadet scheme, but please, be realistic!
