uhuhuhuhuh, 27 years old....wonderfull, so if you are 27 and 1 day, it is bye bye for you!!!
I am so sorry , I told you 23, but now you can join BA ....

send clows, please dont give them fake hope. you know this market sucks and has nothing to do with a snob attitude.what do you try to prove, that is easy??? do you work for a school or are you a manager ? do you want more $ of these wanabee pilots???

you know some pilots who have landed jobs(probably pre 9/11/01), but I know many pilots who have no job at all and are still struggling with debts...
and what about you???

when I say job, I say a job on a 2 pilots aircrafts .I do not consider flight instructor to be a job, I have seen to many FI quitting for a better pay in IT. I still receive many emails of friends who told me they have changed jobs and have quit aviation.they are happy to have paid back their loan.
it is not a question to be right or not right, it is a question that to many students think you just have to pay and have a positive attitude to get a job.(some of them have finished at eaglejet )

if some guys really believe they can land a well paid job after a commercial license and a MCC, let me know how you are going to do that...I love to read pink stories!!!

No company I have ever heard of has a 23-year-old maximum - even the old BA sponsorship went to 27 for applying before training. You have whinged for months that airlines won't take people inexperienced pilots, now you seem to claim that they will only take inexperienced pilots. Make your mind up. I could name companies that go for either recruitment strategy, but more that like hours than prefer inexperience meaning you are wrong saying hours are not a benefit. How about the many jobs where the AOC requires 400, 700 or 1000 hours? Do they only take low-hour pilots illegally, or are you not bothering with those companies? Are they beneath you?

You fail to address the points I made in my last post. Is that because I am right, that you are too much of a snob to take a proper flying job, and only want to get in a mid-size jet? If that is the case you are in the wrong business and have just wasted thousands. All the decent pilots I know will fly anything for money. You seem to wish for someone to beg you to accept vast sums for flying their 737.

No-one I know was hired having been on a waiting list for years. You wait for years and you are definitely not the sort of person who should be flying. I know 1 person who paid for hours over and above a type rating before his job. I know so many who have jobs, from all sorts of backgrounds. None of them just looked for jet work. Most of them worked hard to get the jobs, all were willing to, unlike you seem to be.

It is incredible that someone as dishonest and miserable as you seem to be expects to get a job. Your licence doesn't entitle you to an automatic job, you have to have personality to make someone want to pay you to fly. We can only assume that you are unemployed because you are the sort of person that no-one wants to fly with or to employ.
