They've recently employed one of the countries brightest and best A-Cats. You'd gain a lot from working under him.

i cant substantiate the feedback i got about this school.

If you are ready to work anywhere in NZ bay flight IInternational at tauranga are crying for Instructors.

R.P.S is not an 'A' Cat, only a 'B' and from what I've heard, an average one at that.

The 'A' Cat is B.B, a bloody good guy.

Two different "A Cats" being talked about there.

The recently employed one is definitely not ex Indian airforce, he is a good guy but to say
one of the countries brightest and best A-Cats
is not doing other A cats justice. I think his employment was because of "certain issues".

I'd keep clear of Wings/MDAC if I were you, although things seem to be on the improve there.

Haven't any real info on it for about a year, but back then it was... less than an ideal place to work / fly.

27/09,

To cast dispersions on someone’s employment by saying that it is because of "certain issues" is not very helpful. Can you elaborate please?

Skytops

I think the word you mean is "aspersions". If that is the case then I think you misread my post.

I was not casting aspersions on anyone's employment at all, in fact I was saying the exact opposite. He was being employed because what good he could do for the operation.

I hope you understand the meaning of what I wrote now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
