The trainees in QantasLink are already fighting a pretty average reputation among the old fellas for their
want it all now attitudes. The other day I heard one trainee kid complaining about how long it's going to take him to get his command. He hadn't even started his endorsement sims.
I couldn't believe it. He hasn't even flown the aeroplane yet and already thinks he's ready for his command.
Just because they've lowered the experience requirements to get into the airline, doesn't mean your 250hrs is any more than 250hrs in the eyes of anyone. You're still under experienced and the airline has absolutely no obligation to you. You owe plenty to them if you want to go from
"Cessna 152 downwind touch and go" to flying a dash 8.
So be careful about complaining about the aptitude test costs and the time it takes you to get a response on here.
And for christ sake, if you get in don't post photos of yourself in your uniform all over the internet. It's embarrassing watching you.
