After being released by said Airline he returned immediately to Smart Lynx, its fair to say they did not have the same standards, take from that what you will.
I know a fella who was dropped by TCX in the line training stage after being a CTC cadet, and now is in one of those ACMIs...
Maybe when you start flying Officer Kite you will know what kind of characters end up in such an airline......
It is no ones first choice to go to fly for any ACMI when you have no idea what your doing or where your going month to month, sometimes day to day and usually people do it as a matter of desperation when they have no other options and don't be fooled other wise.
The standards to pass their selection and their training departments, compared to the rest is not even on the same level.
