Re: EasyJet Low Hours Pilot

No I don't, however if you can prove me wrong, I'll apologise! You seemed to have blurted out some random pish but if you have some substance to your argument, I would genuinely love to hear it.

In the states it seems quite common to work your way up through instructing and then to splash out on a biz jet rating. I personally know 2 guys (both American citizens) who did this and now fly a Falcon and a Citation.

In the UK, I have never known of any 250 hour guys to take this option. If it has ever worked, I am almost certain that those people would have been known personally by the operator and promised a job before doing a TR. Biz jet operators take experienced crews only.

To fund a rating at the experience levels that this guy has, then you're better off pointing him in the direction of a 737 or A320.

I can't understand why Easyjet would be anyone's first choice but if it is, then get in touch with CTC. (And do a search...)
