mmmmh
Dutchie,
can you also explain why a type rating of a B737-300EFIS is only $ 8,000 in USA (without base check) ?
And the cost of the same type rating in Frankfurt is EUR 16,000, without base check ?
FAA TRI/TRE get less money ? I don't think so.
Generally speaking there is an incredible difference in price between ICAO and JAR type ratings.
I think that, as usual, European market rips you off. Prices for type ratings are just too expensive.
I think many people are considering the route of getting the ICAO type rating, do 500hrs on type and then converting to JAR, if a skill test is passed in an approved JAR TRTO.
