A course of 2!!

Does anybody know how many cadets have been accepted onto the course so far? Six months in it seems a long way of the 70 per year in the initial press release. Maybe the 70 includes the Asian Cadets who get a course with substantially more content for significantly less dollars!!

Imho anyone who starts a cadet course prior to the outcome of the senate enquiry seriously puts into question whether their attitude to risk is appropriate to become a professional pilot.

Ps Krusty. I understand there is no salary sacrifice for the repayment of training costs. Repayments are made after tax!!

From the JQ cadetship FAQ section of the CTC website

How do I pay back the Jet Star loan?
You will pay back the loan to Jet Star over a period of 6 years. This repayment will be paid out of your post tax salary.
