Lets not turn it back into another cadet vs direct entry debate again. The topic is the merit of the jetstar scheme. Importantly, people have to research other schemes run by ctc and airlines around the world to determine their relative merit.

Personally, is the course warranted in australia.....absolutely not. But their train set and the rest.
Prospective applicants proceed with extreme caution and diligence. Jetstar are not doing this because of a pilot shortage.
