Hi folks,
Did anyone else see the show "Sky Truckers" on Discovery Wings tonight at 2200? Did anyone, like me, think "Yeah! I wanna do that"?
Basically, my question for any transport pilots out there is: How do you get into transport flying and what type of licence/ experience do you need? Is it easier to get a job in transport than airlines?
For anyone who missed it, the programme followed the crew and ground ops of transport firm Cargo Lion through a typical tour.
Looked like bloody hard work and not for the faint hearted (a go-around in a DC.8 at c.500ft because a C.5 Galaxy is taking off dead ahead????
) but very interesting and very "hands on"!
I would love to hear any advice from any transport pilots out there.
Thanks, VFE.
