The latest bunch of cadets doing their line training had to wait two years from completing ab-initio to type rating. Some just went back to their old jobs and waited. They were still required to pay back the training even though they weren't flying. Typical Jetstar in that they are now training the last of the cadets and there is no one else coming through the training pipeline. It will take at least two years to have any new cadets doing their line training and in that time Jetstar will probably have trained up enough DEFO's. Interesting that the REX cadetship is being touted as "real" flying experience.
