Why pay for a TR when you've only got 250 hours TT and no job warranty?

Not a smart move, considering you will have to justify that choice at your job interview...

Quoting our website (under construction):

The costs of these courses range between 75 000€ and 140 000€.
Students graduate with a little over 200 hours of time logged, which is far below the requirements of European airlines. On average, an European airline will consider a student with at least 500 hours of total flying experience.
Many graduates therefore try to make themselves attractive by self-funding expensive type-rating courses that cost over 20 000€. But a type-rating does not often work-out to the students' expectations as airlines do not consider a type-rating as additional experience.
