it's not about the magic number

is about whether they'll keep those who are good enough for the later batches in the year instead of choosing the top 6 and throwing away the rest no matter how good they are

yes no doubt....

AUD142,500

Don't even know if the cadets need to pay a smaller lump sum first, like in the range of AUD$20,000 or so before being allowed to start the course.

the financing part seriously needs more information

you will definitely have to come out with the lump sum. In fact, it clearly states on the website about partial funding and thats very similar to the australian cadet program. i guess the scheme for the singapore and australian has very little difference if not similar and they will only help you fund like 40 grand out of the whole course fees.

It is very sad that you are only there for 6 years and then your future is uncertain but thats the way Airlines do business..once they have milked your money and every single cent they move on...even though the short term gain is a shiny jet the longterm future will get much more gloomier...sad but true...

seems like the perfect plan for both OAA and Jetstar...

OAA will continue to get people to pay them 150k for their training... and Jetstar will continue to get all the new pilots... it's a cycle. after contract finish, new batch of pilots come in..

Couldn't catch much sleep. Kept thinking about what the outcome might be. Has anyone got any news on whether jsa has decided who to hire?

The dream is still alive!!!!

haha, still early days dude, get some sleep... think gotta wait till end of February before anyone hears anything..

it's already been 3weeks of waiting for me, so just live life as it is..




as for the bond, i have no idea on what grounds are they bonding the cadets when the cadets have to fork out the money through their own pockets..
