pilotchute,
I'm not sticking up for cadets here but around the world, and not just in our little bubble in Aus, they are a reality and will continue to be. You can accept it, like accepting the train set minimums and move on, or you can go through life being bitter and hate every cadet that steps onto the flightdeck.
I can't stand entitlement whether it's from a 200hr cadet or some
that used to be on 300k at Ansett in the 80's and whinging he isn't flying a 737 on that money now. I've had the displeasure of both and don't lose sleep over either.
