Why the question - you didn't make it as an airline pilot ??

Very puzzled as to why it seems so many on this forum seem to regard that as some kind Mt Everest of achievement

The academics are of a vocational type level, V brief & thin in depth, CPL accas can be done in seven weeks ATPL six , - that is like a whole three months of academics at TAFE level to do airline pilot tech stuff - all exams multi guess.

Really likely not even TAFE level , perhaps year 11 ? Really just very brief and cursory description level teaching about aircraft tech. But the depth of knowledge is really very very light.

Wow wee !!

I think I will go out now and Have a Beer.
