Ask yourself this. Will there come a point where rich and able candidates for p2f start to run dry, especially as the airline industry continues to lose its status? And the airlines are left to choose from the rich, but less able candidates. Will they abandon p2f because the standards of applicant have decreased? Or will they choose to lower their selection standards. After all, it is a very cheap way of getting pilots, and modern jets are really really safe and are difficult to crash...aren't they????

Paul Frank, good spot on my inherent rambling....

To answer your question relating to my own post.

I guess one option could be to expect the new low salary captains, who exercised their option to "buy a training role " via the "tagged trainer scheme" with the "preferred fto" could be expected to take up the slack.

Maybe I shouldnt have put that into print. Anyone know if I can patent that idea?

In fact on reflection wheres the delete button, forget I mentioned it.
