There is probably 8 agents who have the contract. Some small, some bigger, some local, etc.

Tasman Aviation is a brand new agency who's owner is one of the A330 Captain's on the CSA contract. He was just in Dubai doing a road show because he is an ex EK pilot. Seemed okay.

Longreach is another Aussie/Kiwi run agent headquartered in Hong Kong. They've got a couple guys at CSA.

The bigger UK agents Parc and Sigmar have the contract.

Rishworth has it, but has had some issues with pilots in the past which make them questionable. Search PPrune for their name and you'll find the whole story.

If I were looking at it I would likely look to Parc first, but would need to compare benefits and talk more in depth to make a final decision.

Your agent needs to prep you for the written exam and for the sim. The sim is a big stumbling block right now. Only about 20% pass rate from what I hear.
