i hold a CPL, Command Multi-Engine Instrument Rating, and an Instructor Rating with 300 total flying hours.
mabuhay!
pinoypiloto,
S43 is right. Minimum flight time required for new hires at CebuPac is 1500 hrs. It might go down to 1000 hrs if the current trend continues. My advice is to keep on accumulatng those flight hours because of the expected increase in requirement for experienced pilots in the asia-pacific region in the next decade or two.
There is even talk at Cebupac of setting up an Ab Initio flight school, but that's all up in the air.
And when you do get the time, unless you're particularly inclined to living in Flipland, why not try other asian carriers that offer better compensation/working conditions...just my 2 centavos
