Only time flown on VH registered aircraft would count? Doesn't/didn't Soar force its students down the RA track to get the RPC first? If so, then I reckon that most students who haven't attained the certificate yet won't be able to get all that much counted towards the required CPL experience, would they? Or can they possibly transfer RA hours to a new operator and get their RPC there?
I hope for current students that they'll do the right thing and sign their logbooks without bringing more shame upon themselves.

That article is an opinion only and does not mean it is correct.
I would be inclined to think that if it was a 150 hour integrated course, then it would be correct, however it’s not; it’s 200 and Raaus hours still count.

I've spent enough time in court rooms over the last couple of years thanks. Enough time to know that you'll get justice in Australia if you can afford to buy it. Enough time to know that if ya gunna commit a criminal offence make it a white collar jobby. Do some body or group over for a couple of mill, spend a year or two in an open door farm, well worth the fraud.

We are in complete agreement here; postcode justice is real and rich people get the best representation their money can buy. When companies offend they claim legal expenses against tax.

That could be a horrible situation for students.

just the fact that they drained them of every dollar they possibly could via the Tax Payer!!
The ASQA findings are the tip of the iceberg, they are limited in scope as far as their investigation goes. One hopes there are some well qualified lawyers on this class action, if they know and understand aviation the students and aviation industry are in for a treat.
I’m waiting to see the words “Friday fax” here somewhere.

It’s the lawyers equivalent of farting in someone’s face. Send a fax on Friday afternoon 4.45pm. The recipient can’t respond or object or get to court before close of business. It ruins their weekend. I’ve had it done to me by Macquarie Bank - sleazy bastards.
Some more funny memes appearing here and very relevant to the moment. I’ve got some ideas for a couple of new ones if someone smarter than me wants to contact me :-)

And we thought the only flooding happening was around Brisbane and the East Coast today, turns out the flood gates are opening down in Moorabbin too!

Poor kid. Such a waste of time and money for a 31 year old student who arguably would want to fast track her training at this point in her life.
I'm amazed by the fact that so many people are willing to pile up so much debt without doing their due diligence. That's especially true at Moorabbin where you have a dozen operators all doing the same thing. I'd expect students to have the awareness to wonder how training is done at other schools and inquire if they suspect something to be amiss with their own operator. This young woman signed up in 2017 which should have given her 2-3 years of time to spot red flags. Going by the many accounts that were given on Soar, I find it surprising that so many students stuck with it.
Soar Aviation still holds a certificate for CASR part 141 flight training, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority said. All flights recorded in a student's logbook remain valid and can be counted towards training elsewhere.
