Ethiopian training

Human Kargo......Im not sure what you are on about.The training at ET is quite thorough and demanding, that is for certain.When you join your can go through 20 hours of SIM, but it is all standard/normal stuff.Lots of steep turns, stalls etc, and a full-on Addis training exercise.Its a Cat C airport, so it needs to be covered properly.


That paragraph says everything I need to know about you.

Yes - Addis is a reasonably busy airport by African standards and has a lot of terrain and density altitude considerations.

BUT compared to the rest of the world - ADD is small-time. If you think Addis is busy or challenging, what do you think of LHR, JNB, DXB, JFK, or HKG.....
