You still dont get it, nobody cares if you have 1000-10'000 h or if you are a FI,...all they want is your $ with no job in return.
and you know why? because there is no job and this stupid industry make you believe there are jobs by looking at the banners.
when you get an interview, the first thing they tell you is how much it will cost you.if you are not happy, leave...then they tell you they have 50 guys and they will take only 2-3 guys.it means 47-48 idiots will have a useless t/rating and no job(If they are stupid to pay).
many of my friends are FI, but no $=no t/r=no job...they are desparated, mad, upset, some have quit for mac do...as a FI you don't make $.
sorry guys, if you don't have 10 -15years in your life to support yourself and 200'000$ for your course, you are dead!
this is why, if you want a normal life, don't try to be a pilot.
