Good to see you back here!
I do not doubt for one moment the quality of training that you are offering. In fact, my remark about 'proper type ratings' was perhaps not the best phraseology I could have chosen.
On the subject of SOPs- it's time for me to admit that I actually know b@gger all about real airline SOPs. Just what I have heard from sources here and elsewhere, that there are real differences, and these can cause problems.
Anyway- that's not the real issue. Shurely the pilot that will be most 'readily acceptable' to any given airline is one that has been trained in-house? How can it be otherwise? And this being the case, it will naturally come about that we will not be paying up front for TRs.
Fair enough, I will not change your mind. I have said my piece and have pretty much reached the limit of my knowledge. Thus I retire to my corner, considering CC's contribution to the debate complete.
By the way- the bit about lightening wallets- you ARE trying to take money off us, so that comment stands!
Respectfully
