All,
Could anyone please advise the route of progression for a pilot within a company such as Bristow? I am curious as to the time in years and flight hours.
As I understand it would go:
First Officer
Senior First Officer after approx 2 years.
Captain after approx 5 years.
Whats the next step after captain?
Would being a non university graduate hinder any promotion as a pilot?
I work offshore at the moment but have my PPL and am looking to slowly move in to the commercial side of my training. The reason I ask the above questions is just an attempt to get a better understanding of the structure of your industry.
I really appreciate any help and I apologise if this question has been asked numerous times.
Many thanks,
G
