Par Avion to Train AirAsia Pilot Cadets
They certainly do plan for the long term, the Premier got himself voted in for life basically. You can only really plan for the long term when you know who the leader will be.
I'm pretty sure that most things coming out of China that are good quality are western designs or technology they have "acquired" through honest means and not so honest. Have you owned a chinese made car? They are junk. How long did Comac work on that airliner? The totally original design that looks awfully like a DC9. Still took them 15 years.
They haven't had an original idea since gunpowder.

This is a win-win for both sides.
For goodness sakes don’t go in with this “I’m Australian from a first world country and thus god’s gift to aviation and you are inferior creatures” mentality so often smugly forwarded in this country or you’ll screw it for all concerned. Treat them like numpties, they’ll pack their bags, leave and get as good training elsewhere. Who wins then?
Yes on the whole, Australian aviation standards have had a lot longer to mature and are thus in some ways able to set good examples for students from countries where that is not the case. By the same token many of those countries have had such rapid advancement in the last 20 years it puts us to shame.
So cadets from Air Asia learning how to aviate and keep safe (and not fly dodgy approaches into OOL!) is fantastic. The money, culture and enthusiasm they bring to Tassie is terrific.
Well done to whomever organised this - a great plan and I hope it blossoms ��
