Hi

Most operators will ask you for some form of bond for any type as they will have to sponsor you for the license conversion, type rating as this is usually needed for every type flown commercially and for route training. The only exception to this would be if you had already got the local license and time on the type you will fly.

Not really a problem as the bond is not huge if you get an offer too good to refuse, but as many westerners have come out, done training which has cost the company money and then promptly disappeared the employers are getting a bit more carefull about bonding people.

Best
