IndAir967,

Thanks for the info.

Yes, I had heard about AI Express ad for 737 FOs but I guess thats risky as well, since some guys from Jet/jetlite and a few pilots who were laid off from Spicejet applied for this.
and it also states its a contract job ... (which may become permanent upon getting ATPL/command)

I also checked up with a couple of TRTO's for an ERJ 170 SIC Type Rating ... a whopping 24 lakhs ... excluding accomodation costs etc !!

Anyway .. I guess I'll wait and watch a little more ...

Also .. are you sure about the thing regarding the Indian RT versus "converted" RT while applying to Star Aviation ?
Is'nt that rather absurd ? Whats the reason for that ?
Or is that they fear the WPC might come up with some new ruling regarding renewal of foreign RTs which might end up in pilots getting grounded for sometime ???

Thanks and regards,
