Hi everyone, I am a experienced airline Captain (15,000 hours) widebody, worldwide and IRE/TRE. I wish to move away from the airlines and move into VIP. I know there are a few G550's arriving in the UK next year, and wondered how easy it might be to get a type rating, on a US ATP with Bermudan/Cayman validation. Then try and freelance, whilst I get myself known in this tightly knit community. I have heard rumours of $1,200 per day, plus Flight Safety are putting a G-V sim into Farnborough next year, so I am also hoping to possibly pick up some training once I have some time on type.
Can anyone offer any advice please ? where to go for type rating, cost etc
Am I completely mad ?
Any idea's on who to contact ref freelancing
Thanks in advance for any help.
