Hi guys,

I think that the hubair/Astraeus type rating is very good for Belgian pilots. Because in belgium there is not a lot of ab initio's with a TR, so you have all your chances with companies like TNT,TUI and even Virgin exp. when the situation will be better. If it's not working in those companies don't worry a lot of of companies abroad are looking for belgian pilots.
But please l'ardennais forget Ryanair, as after the type rating with Astraeus they will ask you again somethings like 5000€ to do the Ryanair conversion course, then you will have to wait for a decent salary still paying for your prof check and others sims that you will have to do. As pilot you deserve better than that.
