Guys, my airline does line training, and to be honest these 'pay as you go types' are all treated like outcasts, so much so they don't even come into the crewroom any more as they'll be linched. The reason, over 100 of us properly employed pilots are due to be laid off, with these idiots doing our flying and no stopping to it, lots of very bitter feeling now, understandably. When you are in my situation you will realise what a pointless and dreadful exercise this is. It really is killing this once respectable profession, and that is a fact. No-one is recruiting low hours guys, even the PAYG cadets. DON'T DO IT, IT IS COMPLETELY POINTLESS, 150 HOURS ON TYPE IS USELESS, wait your turn it will come, even if it is 2-3 years, the industry is in the worst downturn ever, FACT.
