By buying a jet rating you are stating your preference loud and clear as to what you want to fly. What happens if you can't get a job flying jets at the end? I doubt that you would get a sniff from any turbo-prop operators due to this jet rating.

Who knows what recruitment will be like in 15 months form now. Perhaps airlines won't freely be taking SSTR's like they are now. Perhaps going forward more and more airlines will appoint specefic training organisations (think BMI/MyTravel/First Choice and GEcat) and if you dont come from them, then forget it (easyJet/CTC anyone?)

You never know.
