Basicaly it is a full time course which is offered by one of the better flight schools out in the U.S.A. 0-1500 hrs, or in my case 55-1500 hours in 27 months. The price includes all ratings and exams etc From what I can gather, the course trains you up in the first stage, so you will be a qualified SEP, MEP etc instructor (I imagine this is when the major hour building kicks in) then you move towards this turbo-prop placement at the end of the course.
The basic course price seems very reasonable, but with the cost of living out there for 27 months, it pushes the price significantly higher. Then with conversion on top of this, the costs just seem to mount. However, I would have a full ATPL, and surly that can only stand me in good stead with the airlines, especially if I have 250 hrs on turbo-props working in an airline enviroment?
FFF. How many jobs are open to guys with 250 hrs? That's the $60,000 question. I would be over the moon just to get any sort of flight crew position at the end of this, Prop - Jet, it simply does not matter.
