None of you have gotten down off your high horses long enough to answer my question: What is your gripe with the cadet scheme???
Is it the fact that they are low hour pilots? - If so then you should be taking action on the air force. Guys graduate there with 300ish hours any they can fly widebodies!!! If you believe that the air force can do it because they are trained so well then what is Jetstar doing wrong regarding its training syllibus?
How many instances of reported severe hard landings have we heard about from those 'supposed' low hour RAAF pilots vs. the reported (and actual) hard landings and fcuked-up go-arounds from 'the orange stars'?
How bout this?
