... actually ... it would probably mean that all the skydiving operators in America and bush pilot outfits down under would all become millionaires overnight, as the teeming hordes of 
ing idiots from integrated courses in Europe descended in their masses, in their mad rush to climb all over each other's heads and stab each other in the back and undermine the profession worldwide instead of just in their own backyards, by paying hundreds of quid per hour to sit in a thrashed old single-piston doing what used to be a paid GA job 
I can just imagine some Brit private equity outfit buying some Crocodile Dundee C185 operator in the African swamps and mysteriously turning it into a hugely promoted glossy-brochure thing in association with CTC and OATS where you can get your 1000 hours bush flying for the small price of 200,000 euros

So so true Luke!
So are there any operators out there who respect the people that have worked their way up to a few thousand hours through hard work and determination, rather than forking out a shed load of cash to jump the queue? And more importantly, will they take them on?
