L3 told Qantas that instructors wouldn’t want to pay for the privilege of training future QF pilots leaving Alan dumbfounded.
“it really is unbelievable that instructors expect to paid to fly these wonderful new machines,” Said Alan.
Brilliant.

Might be time to engineer another terminal decline, game changing alliance, ground the airline or indeed construct a Potemkin village.

The Chairman's lounge memberships won't fix this one

BWAHAHAHAHA!!! Gold.

In all seriousness though...It would be VERY easy to find instructors for this enterprise if they were contracted to flow to QF mainline (or JQ) after serving satisfactorily as an instructor for a certain period. They could even be given a seniority number so that they weren't junior to their students.

But that will never happen with the current QF Group psyche that values industrial division and more stick / less carrot.

In other news

Virgin have reportedly finalised a deal with a local signwriter to amend the sign on the front door at BFTS. This is an important milestone as they near the commencement of operations in June this year. Lol!

Is anyone aware of the questions they (fta) ask during the interview process? I got an invitation to sit the assessment day in Nov so keen to hear from anyone who knows what the experience was like?

Yes, the first question is how do you spell “process”, “receive” and to distinguish between “there” and “their”.

Right! So you're saying they expect the candidates to come up with some Shakespearean sonnet ?

And one mustn’t forget the importance of the correct uses of “then” and “than”.

Or this maybe.

How do you feel about parting with tens of thousands of dollars for absolutely no return?
