Nice one Bruce!!

Worth remembering, the boom and bust cycle. The bust is still with us. The cycle from memory is about 8 years.

Apart from natural attrition, during bust a lot of prospective trainees will shy away from aviation. will will hear "Why train when there are no jobs?" I think that is wrong advise. By the time one begins training, on average it is three? years before they are fully licensed. I think the boom will come. 3 years maybe more until it is with us.
