And the contract for training provider goes to L3 Aviation (UK) who have a base in Hamilton NZ. The question then arises as to how they will obtain an Australian AOC, what aircraft they will acquire and most importantly where are they going to get the instructors from?

and most importantly where are they going to get the instructors from? If anyone will struggle to get instructors it won't be them. And the biggest business is going to find it easiest to get the govt to approve 457 visas. |
Where does it say that the instructors will have a seniority number in Q ?? The instructors will work for the foreign contractor as far I can see. All smoke and mirrors, the amount of s*&t that is coming will be amusing to say the least.
P.S. hate to say I told you the winner over a month ago. |
Instructors given a qf Seniority number? :} hahaha no chance in hell of that happening.
They will either get their instructors from; 1. The large pool that were deemed not suitable to fly for qf/qf link due to their inability to decide which shape came next in the pattern sequence *ironic that they'll be teaching the next QF generation OR 2. A poison berry (disguised as a carrot ) will be dangled from a sufficient height to suggest the "possibility" of future employment in the QF group. (after a long period of time.) *Doubley ironic. These instructors would be considered for the qf group without the time restriction had they chosen to work somewhere else AND they are training the very people in such quantities that will likely prevent them from obtaining a position with the qf group. Maybe im just getting cynical in my old age |

Should be some interesting issues with radio frequencies and traffic separation from Toowoomba. The latest VTC doesn't show an ILS at Oakey any more? And Brymaroo NDB gone? I've been out of aviation for a while....

A list as long as your arm!
Here's a link to the full interview that Elysse Morgan from ABC program 'The Business' did with AJ yesterday at Wellcamp Airport.
The Business - ABC News Pilot shortage to drive pilot salaries higher? Not at QF according to AJ. This won't come as a surprise to most but here is some direct insight. AJ: "...we've got a list as long as your arm." Elysse: "So no pay rises for Qantas pilots then?" AJ: "Qantas pilots are really well paid! You know an A380 Captain gets paid around $400,000 a year! A starting pilot at QantasLink gets paid $80,000 a year. I think they're good salaries and a lot of people out there, a lot of your viewers, would love to have one of those jobs." PG |

But once that pool has dried up.....? |

So he obviously has no interest in attracting the BEST? May be getting them at the moment, but that’s only because of years of no recruitment and a large pool of pilots who want to work for QF in that time. But once that pool has dried up.....? Whether the 'list' of interest includes fourteen year old school kids 'with aspirations' was not disclosed. The reality the list' may be nowhere as strong as little Napoleon would want people to believe. |
Of the 18000 that have an expression of interest, 16% are female. Will be interesting to see what percentage of the first intake will be female... ”Addressing the gendar imbalance is the key to meeting market demand for pilots” With approx 15120 of the 18000 applicants being male, I beg to differ. |
This EOI number is akin to “the fish I caught was this biiigggg”. It grows every time it’s quoted. Ultimately all it is is an email address typed into a box with the submit button hit, close to worthless. |
Yes, the instructors will be an issue - where will they come from (other than retirement?)
But the more interesting question, is where will the Engineers come from to maintain the 40 aircraft they have planned????? |

And all the imported LAME’s will have their CASA tickets by next July? |
