Good point you make Island Air. I was concerned a few months back on hearing some CRJ pilot jobs were to go, and thought this would mean no sponsorship this year. With the added events of Sept 11th, I was amazed to find it's still happenning.
I will apply, but can't say I'm not worried it may go t*ts up. Plus there's the 32k issue.....
(I can get my whole licence done for that price if I go modular!)
Good luck!
