Q400 rating cost

[Greensman]

Hi guys
I've searched the threads for answers but couldn't find any. To all the Q400 guys out there maybe you can help. I'm on the Q300 at present and looking to do the difference course towards my JAA uk license. I know there's a sim in England. Does anyone know of anywhere in Europe where i can do a Q400 course? Also, tried emailing Oxford as to an idea of the package on the 400 but got no reply, any idea as to the cost of the course? A thousand thanks in advance.:ok:
TT: 3000
Q300: 2800

I believe its around 25k for the full rating

Many moons ago I did the differences course with Flybe which I think was a week in the classroom and then 2 days in the sim. I never actually flew the Q400 though, even any circuits as went on the 146 instead. Maybe flybe training department could point you in the right direction.

Thanks guys, really appreciate it. I'll have to look into it to see how best i can do this. Wonder why a turbo prop rating is so costly compared to a jet rating like an A320 or B737? There's something i have to debate over, turbo prop rating or go all the way to a jet rating.....:confused: thanks again guys
