Post some thoughts...

There wonīt be a typerating, just a SIC check.. As far I understood SIC for the complete Lear series and the Hawker 125.. Problem without type is you will get trouble for recognition of your hours in your Jar licenece. So itīs useless, if you wnat to apply in Europe after ?
Read the terms and conditions carefully, there are quite a few cases the can throw you out of the program (i.e. you are twice responsible for delay, you fail repatedly a check...) but not mentioned to refund you some money in this case..
Itīs discribed what your preflight and postflight duties are, but nothing said about inflight.. Just sitting there during flight? Brings probably some hours, but now experience...
Nothing in the contract to confirm you could keep on flying after the 1000hrs..
I could go on here, but the main reason to stay away for me is the fact you donīt do a type..
So far: Anybody some Ideas about better programs?
Any Ideas about the programs with the following companies:
-eaglejet
-Alpine Air Express
-TAB Express International
-Gulfstream Academy
-Ameriflight
-Mesa
-Colgan
-DAT in Denmark (found this in an elder thread..)

My goal is to get a TR and 500hrs on type, preferebly on the B 1900..
O.k., changed my mind, before I wanted to do the Lear, but thatīs another story.
So long..
