Why does the race issue offend you?

The race card will always be there whether you like it or not, because it is a political issue. It is beyond you and me and neither one of us can change it. I would love to be in your world where people are just people and no politics...

Yes hire people the way you say it, that is if everyone was equal in all terms. Plus who said that they would select future pilots without assessments and tests?

It would be financially suicidal to recruit people without assessing them. SAA cadets in Adelaide had to do almost 1year of testing and assessments before they were sent over.
You should know that even with candidates passing tests and evaluations it doesn’t mean a 100% pass rate.

What is the point of a cadetship, when SAA could hire from hundreds if not thousands of qualified pilots out there and save the money you are talking about?
