If you want to fly a 747 VFR you are a braver man than me
Most jet transport a/c type ratings usually culminate in "base training", which in the UK means VFR circuits in your newly rated jet. Flying a 737 VFR round the circuit at East Mids (touch and gos' no less) was certainly a lot of fun, though I didn't really appreciate it at the time!
There was a 747 booting round the circuit in Grenoble a few weeks ago....
