Hopefully things are changing regarding type-ratings. I was made redundant at the end of last year. Even though I had 8000 hours total and 6500 on biz jets I couldn’t get a lookin without the right type. The type I had was the Falcon 900EX (classic) which was regarded as old. In the end I applied to an airline. They were so eager they practically ripped my arm off ( and paid for my 737 rating)!
