Hi, I recently completed my PPL, I'm looking to turning my love of flying into a career.
I am on the verge of putting a deposit down with EFT's Airline Pilot Program, with the view to starting in September once I've finished university.
One of the key things that attracted me to this program was the 18 month period as a flight instructor, within which the aim is to achieve 1500 hours, of which 200 are multi engine.
In the real world how much will this improve my chance of securing airline work? Is it worth putting in the 18 months away from home on a pittance, or would the time be better spent in the UK as a 2-300 hour pilot sending CV's out left right and centre?
Any advice is much appreciated.
