I understand all of that Granpa, but please don't even talk about AAA of Sharjah, you DON'T Know anything in there, flight line will be closed in Sharjah not because of GCAA, its because of the Airport, the airport is busy & is only less than 20 NM away from Dubai, this makes it really hard for the guys to fly without getting stressed & let almost over a Dozen to fly per day...etc. I can tell you that it is really CROWDED out there the smallest Jet is an A320 in the skies of UAE almost 90% of the time, you've got A330s, 340s, 380s, 777s & 737s flying all around the small Dubai Airspace !
The Flying was shifted to Australia, with AAPA in Wagga, already some cadets came back for MCC from there while others have left to Wagga, Batch 1 is doing the base training, while batch 2 & 3 are in the Type Rating...Another Batch is starting in Jan, I have spent 2.5 years being told I will be done in 12 months, where does that put me...don't just take revenge from AAA UAE because of AAG Philippines !
Now, please tell me, what is the hidden 99%...please tell me...delays (Aviation is full of delays...starting with Aircraft manufacturers

)?
Guys, it is your soul decision to join or not join AAG, please wait for a couple of Batches to Graduate & work before you join...check the product at the end of the line...then decide
