MPL vs GA experience

[highflyer23]

MPL is it ruining the chances of the guys that have gone the GA rout?

MPL doesn't exist it is only a proposal. So until they start finding people who will pay in the vicinity of $200G for a $70G job and rewrite the CAO's; GA or Airforce is it for the moment.

A rout would be a good description of GA funnily enough!!

Ur wrong matey, its up and running in Asia, took its 1st batch of MPL cadets this March. Not 200k but more like 75k from no time to A320.

Luckily not in Aus yet but will soon affect the world market.

Its where someone can get from zero flight experience to a FO spot with out and actual fling time

That's a pretty cheap sim! $300 an hour?!!! The endorsement alone in this country is $30 000!!

Oh, out of the mouths of babes and innocents.

I suspect you meant to say "route" but "rout" was quite apposite in the circumstances.

MPL will not be an issue for the next 2 years Minumum in Australia, IMHO.
As Nev stated it will take forever to change the regs for a start.

You do know the MPLS are being trained in Australia now

[MCKES]

How come they cant train in their own country? Genuine question.
