Indian MPL Cadets from Clark
Several months ago the Indian MPL cadets from Clark were part of the first group of cadets to travel to Sharjah for interview/assessment by Air Arabia. They were with the 3 Baharaini's. The 3 Baharaini's were found acceptable and commenced ground school (EP's, DG's etc) immediately and are well into line training (46 sectors).
Last month the four Indian MPL cadets from Clark were called back to Sharjah to commence ground school and line training (IOE).
Next month the next group go the Sharjah for interview/assessment. So far all cadets (both Cebu Pacific and non Cebu Pacific) who have been issued MPL licences have been accepted into airlines.
The shortage of pilots in the Philippines along with the airline's policy of only employing nationals has meant full employment for all. In fact, there is still a shortage, especially commanders. Now as for their terms and conditions, well thats another matter but at least they are in.
