How can Ansett justify 35.5k for a 146 endorsement on a very old depreciated sim? The cost of a course is usually, in a big part, driven by the usage costs for the sim. The newer the sim the more expensive it is and the more it costs to use it.
The 146 sim is old and been paid for about 100 times over so how they can charge an over the top amount is beyond me, the coursework IP costs shouldn't be too excessive.
