Bonding for a type rating

[bob soap-smith]

Hi.

I'm a twin turboprop pilot and have been working for a company on contract around africa for a little over a year.They now feel that I am underutilised on the twin and want to rate me on a C208 (a step backwards).

Is it fair that they propose to impose a training bond on me and the other crew they want to do conversions?

Thanks,
Bob SS
