Matt should be fair....Bristow is a for profit training operation where the young folks hoping to become Professional Pilots pick up the cost of their training. When we see Operators doing the old style Bristow Cadet Training Program funded by the Operator then we shall know things have really changed.
That would take a Sea Change in the Industry where the Ab Initio Student is taken into a training system and then progress onto the Operator's Line Flying Program. That would require the Customers, Insurance Folks, Regulators, and Immigration Authorities to all adopt different thinking about Pilot Licensing, experience requirements, and the like.
If the situation gets desperate.....will we see that happen?
