A bit away from the Fiji aviation scene but from what I have heard, a bunch of locals were selected for the second officer positions. However, most of them straight out of flying school with a majority not even meeting the published requirements. Strangely enough, apparently not one pilot from subsidiary pacific sun had their applications considered...what's with that?? Must be disappointing for them. With a few already failing on the A330, how do they expect these 'inexperienced' SO's to cope?
On a brighter side, exodus to the ME and Asia from the A330 is resuming! Good luck boys! I've never regretted it and neither will you. With FJ, the gra$$ is always much greener on the other side...
