absolutely nothing

sorry to say, but absolutely nothing is out there for a beginner.

I am: an aeroplane engineer with ICAO/JAA CPL-IR+ME, frozen ATPL, ICAO level 5, 280 hours total, etc..

I am willing to pay for type rating and even line training IF there is a signed job contract at the end. But there is no such thing.

hundreds of CVs sent, not one reply.

and very, very sorry to see that airlines do hire people:
-if they are buddies of the insiders
-if they pay about 30-50000 euros

and of course they do not get paid and of course they are back on the streets unemployed after 6 months.

this is tragic. aviation stinks.
