nich av - hardly inspiring.

If you expect people on here to be inspired that dayjet are hiring on the EA500 then perhaps it might be worth a rethink.

EA's days are numbered without major financial restructuring, the premiums for that aircraft are now nearly nil and have transferred to mustang, probably because they are flown with a basic wing leveller/ heading bug autopilot and it will be "some time" beofre thay get approved for flight into known icing.

It will also be "some time" before EASA certification

"cos its crap" (My quote)

Wannabees do just enough training to get you to the point where by you have an instructors rating, get some p1 time (albeit in a single - common sense does not have a multi rating!) and when things even sniff of picking up do a multi IR and be 12-18months nearer the command course than your pears when the jet jobs reappear.

Less debt, less frustration, more skilled, more hours, more sense
