Does it get any worse

Just had an email through for a cockpit job for SIC 'interns' on corporate jets.

To answer your question. . .yes it does.

Not receiving even cr@p offers is a whole lot worse.

People will accept this "internship" though. With open arms.

Just look at the vitriol directed at Jet2.com when they advertised, what to me as an experienced pilot, seemed a fair route into a jet aircraft in 18 months time as an "apprentice pilot".

What they didn't realise was that the course should last 18 minutes, not 18 months, in order to satisfy the lust of today's wannabes.

SIC "internships" are clearly the way forward.

It keeps getting worse.

Well for those of you "with minimum 15 years experience flying Falcon 7X aircraft" (!!??) there is a gig being advertised in Saudi. Funny since the first 7X came on line 2007(?).

That's what I would call a well informed and professional recruitment agency.

First Officer requirement: "..... looking for a First Officer with minimum 10-15 years experience flying Falcon 7X aircraft."
