Getting in!

Hello Half-Pint. Currently it's a good time to apply to link. They like between 800 and 1500 hours. You should have something like a 1900 or similar on your licence. (weight-wise)
Turbine time is always good, but if Daddy allowed you to fly the family Goony-Bird or Skymaster, they won't hold it against you.
Subjects do always help.......
Nice crowd of pilots, not too many Brown-Aeroplane types left.
The flying is really nice.(Pleasant that is, not just "exciting")
Routes are very varied. Equipment is good, not certain about the 146.....
It always helps to get to see one of the boys doing the selection, if you can. Not sure where you give the CV in though.
You won't be welcomed on board with a party(get out there and work!)..... but when you walk in to ops, you will be greeted with a smile and handshake that is genuine.
Look forward to seeing you. All the best.
