Norrington: If you have 500ME or 1000TT you can apply to Randhem, they will provide you the type rating on B737 when you sign a 3 year contract with JetAirways in India. (They need 100-150 pilots)

Anyone,

Let's say you go through Randhem and sign a three year contract with Jet Airways in India as a F/O. With some flying time you had previously you meet the requirements to make captain at the end of year one. Do you still have to fly F/O for the rest of the three years ? Or will they upgrade you. This question is not hypothetical.

For those that think it is a funny question, that is exactly how an operator in Japan works. You sign a F/O contract with them and they will hire less experienced captains over you. Very frustrating I am told !

Also what exactly is the deal between Jet and Randhem ? Who pays for your type rating ? Is it Jet ? Or does Randhem get part of your salary ? Or what ?

Thanks
