Don is correct, increased training program now in the manual for limited jet time guys.
No TP or military guys have yet started training, so will be a fair lead time until the success rate is known. Official line from management is "anyone can be trained". If cadets are passing OK then I guess that is true, just a matter of time and money I guess.
I think it will come down to where these TP pilots got their time; top class multi crew airlines or dodgy fly by night outfits.
Pressure is building, not many levers left to pull to get pilots in the door. Eventually, they may have to think about looking after the ones they've already employed!!
