I can't see how Jetstar could use the cadetships to raise revenue?
The money goes to CAE/OAA/Swinburne, not Jetstar.
Well, you just sound like a jaded GA pilot.
A couple of months ago I met four Jetstar cadets who had just finished their OAA training and were waiting for slots in the CAE A320 simulator in the UK. They went straight from Seminoles to the A320. This must be appalling to a GA pilot who might struggle for years making poor money in old planes, hoping for the chance in an airline.
