The cadetship is an excellent opportunity for young aspiring pilots!!!

Regardless of your arguements, the training is done through on of the, if not the most reputable and well regarded flight schools in the world (OAA). They are well funded, resourced, experienced and established. All training is done to a high standard that incorporate airline standard operating procedures (SOPs) into the training.

A few theory subjects are done through Swinburne University of Technology, a university that has modern facilities and has well established Aviation programs.

Upon successful completion of training, cadets do a A320 type rating that admittedly is more expensive than it could be. Then into a $58,831 a year job (more than most pilots who graduate from flight school and have to go out bush to get enough hours for airlines to take them seriously, try $35699-$42000 for many years). This goes up to $89,980 after 2 years once the pilot has their ATPL.

Plus, they are guaranteed a job as a pilot for 6 years in the airline. Job security in aviation alone is priceless!!!

I win!!!!
