Sporting,

Just be very careful with this course. I have discussed this with one of our cabin crew before who had the same idea.

I am not convinced the job is guarenteed at all. Furthermore, and far more worrying, is that I am not convinced that this qualification is a complete licence. They offer a MPL which is a multi-crew licence, which was a licence designed to allow airlines some cost saving in training cadets.....it was not intended as a shortcut to a CPL. I would do some more homework and find out if ANY other A320 operator will even look at you with this qualification. I don't know.....maybe I am wrong, but I percieve this as risky.

For ZAR1 000 000 you could buy yourself a full CPL + 'frozen' ALTP in South Africa.....you would still have more than enough money left to buy yourself virtually any type rating you would require.......
