The salary for this capt program is atrocious.. fly 90+hrs of <6000usd..

they bleeding pilots.. both FO and capt are leaving for better T & C. I got told over 400+ pilots have left. and more to go..up to now. so they been accepting local senior FOs who have been flying CASA (slight bigger than a twin otter etc) to jump straight into B737 as Captain. no jet time or glass time, and relying on the lion cadet pilots/ab initial pilots to stop the bleeding with a non experience jet capt.

All in all there is accident worst than Bali accident waiting to happen.. but i hope not.

they been using a new agency to recruit captains in europe called presidential something with promise of excellent salary and benefits etc... hahaha...

What they are getting are the bottom of the barrel capts with bad or not existence CRM. no one wants.

The rainy season is soon to be here... that will sort out the real pilots from the wananbes..

and now the airbus is arriving ....
