recommend you don't go there, especially do not put money up front for any type rating, your job wont last long enough to recoup the cost.
flydog,
The reason people are failing sim checks and line checks is because they haven’t reached an acceptable standard! If you are one of those that have failed I’m sorry but the paying public require us to be competent or better. It has nothing to do with your nationality!
The standard of the early joiners was high and but recently a few weak new joiners have crept through the basic selection and then failed sim and/or line checks. I understand new applicants are now being sim checked and extra line training sectors given pre line check.
Winter flying in Canada and NE USA will be challenging even for those of us with good airline and corporate experience.
