Plenty infact thousands of experienced airline, military, regional and ga pilots out there and we need cadets? Right ok...

I guess that will be the end of GA. Good luck to the piston operators out there. If you can't make it in to any of the cadetships it means you will never fly for an airline and thus have the potential to make a reasonable wage. So who in their right mind would fork out 80k to go and fly a death trap in the bush?

Have a mate thats a captain on a Q400 and he has an interesting/insightful point of view on the matter of his copilot 200 hr cadets.

I love the gloss of it all. If we all pat each other on the back its going to be ok isn't it..
