I honestly didn't mean to upset people. I'm not a "bad troll"!!
In some ways my response was aimed at cutting down the expectation of many of today's younger pilots. Aspire to achieve the best you can.. but excercise caution in expecting everything.. (you are far from highly qualified even if you are a Qlink Captain).
I have been involved in initial sim training for candidates with both employers. I'm telling you.. Qlink will nurture you through. Most will get through (almost every single candidate).
Cobham will cut you early if they have the slightest concern about your performance.
Simple as that.
In summary.. I believe Cobham have a far higher general standard because it's a company that you don't just simply hang around at if your below par. You don't get given the opportunity to.
