This is Lockhart River all over again! You clearly have no idea who I am! CASA will care. Another example of how companies in Australia are using pilots to not only pay for a course but not get paid to fly. WOW, they can earn a wage at McDonalds! |
Fidoda - you aren't making a lot of sense - what ARE you on about? Presumably you feel that someone has either ripped you off or is ripping of others. The Mods are pretty jumpy about things that might lead to legal action so cool down and try and state the facts of your case calmly. I see there is an attachment awaiting approval - something to do with the Saab 340??

Pilots whose documents are selected will take a Skype video interview with the Flight Operations management of our partner airline before starting the CASA Saab 340 type rating course in Australia. Immediately upon completion of the type rating course, pilots will report to our partner airline based in the southeast Asia / Pacific area to complete the Airline Operator Conversion Course followed by 500 hours as a Saab 340 First Officer during passenger scheduled operations with the option to extend the program for an additional 500 hours. There is no salary involved while attending the program. ".....pilots will report to our partner airline based in the southeast Asia / Pacific area ...." Possibly not REX? CASA may not have an interest if the FO flying component placement is in Asia or the Pacific? The attachment is from Eagle Jet International, Miramar, Florida. P.S. No posts have been deleted, moved or amended in this thread. |
Oh dear, a fool and his money are soon parted comes to mind.
|
I think paying passengers might be a little concerned about the FO's not being paid whilst flying them around!
|
Can't imagine it would be REX. They pay their FO's under a pilot agreement.
|
Lockhart River all over again? Has the ‘Collins class submarine’ left his PNG gravy train and gone back to working for CASA AUS in Cairns again? Now, where’s my broom and a corner of carpet. Sweep...sweep...sweep |
Could be a Corporate Air tie-up, as they already have some cadet style scheme with Flight Options.
|
Brakerider, you may possibly be correct there. CA operate blue and white Saab’s but also have an all white one (possibly pictured in the Eaglejet Attachment). CASA def need to stop this grubby money saving tactics in its tracks If you are correct, I have a friend there who actually mentioned once some F/O’s come in with 50 twin hours Furthermore, some of the Captains won’t even allow the FO to carry out landings, after some pretty frightening incidents. |
At least you get hotel, meals and transport while doing a night stop.:rolleyes: With the current shortage of pilots, you’d need to be pretty desperate to take on conditions like those. |
Looks like an “opportunity” for someone with a rich daddy. $60K or thereabouts for a Saab 340 type rating plus another $40K in housing and living expenses while you build up the 500 hours of (cough, cough) “quality” airline experience. Assuming the crusty old captain with, in all likelihood, dodgy credentials even lets you touch the controls. Hey, what can go wrong? The really concerning thing is the requirement for a CASA licence which points towards the aircraft being VH registered. In which case, CASA should be interested. |

1. I am not being rude. You posted a statement expressing outrage that a post was deleted or whatever but no details of what the post was about. Hence, W.T.F.? 2. I don't care who you are. 3. A SAAB 340 at 10 tons is definitely not a heavy! 4. Best of luck with CASA. |
Wow, I don't know who you are, but you seem very upset by my post.
You don't care who I am, but other people do. If you have ever have experienced losing someone in a plane crash, where it take a month to retrieve their remains, then maybe you would understand my position. I am expressing my concern that clearly not lessons have been learned after Lockhart River and Operators continue to take advantage of young wannabe pilots desperate to earn their stripes. Companies like this, need to be made accountable. They are greedy and want to line their own pockets. Do you think it's right that some young FO pays for a course and then gets paid nothing? I'm sure the media might be interested in this?! |
BTW - it's not 10 tons it's 13 tons thereabouts!
|
This is absolutely nothing to do with Rex.
|
I think there was bigger issues at play in Lockhart River buddy..... |
Fidoda - Do you expect anyone would know who you are based in your post? What are you talking about?
