rednail,
thanks for the reply, much appreciated. Just want to point however (i'll take on board the advice regarding turbine and jet time), however:
- if i did have such expereince I proabably wouldnt be looking to convert and in AUS 95% of such time in with major or regional airlines, so its not going to happen any time soon for me, such work is difficult to find in aus and once u are there..u r not moving.
- the best I could obatin is maybe 200-300 hrs multi piston, or a C-90 endorsement at best.
- How would the brits view that? Im looking for work anywhere in Europe flying piston twins or singles initially, as long as I could progress onto bigger and better.
Looking at coming over late 2004 or early 2005, and would be doing resedential theory BRISTOL sounds good or LMU and I have a unrestriced passport (dad is english) so its not a problem.
Do operators in Europe mind if you have converted in the US as dorosenco points out it is much cheaper.
How is it going finding work over there, or are u gainfully employed?
As dorosenco points out, and as it appears, the US is alot cheaper.
Altough you dont mention difficulties obtaining the M-1 VISA. As I intend to work in Europe, its a little concerning how operators may view the fact you have trained in the US or is this just not an issue.
Any replies welcome.
