Hi there, you are quite right i am a way off the 750 hour mark, and the line training option wasnt a consideration to help towards more hours, more the fact thats its multi time in an ATO enviroment getting out of the comfort zone of the aeroclub.. As for the command under supervision, i agree ive been carfully watching a couple of guys who are going through a similar thing at the moment and picking there brains too. As for the training with the company, the lucky thing would be that id only be hiring the aircraft of them and all 90% of the training done with an aeroclub instructor.. its all very complicated. haha
Im almost at the end of my instructor rating (IR) ive got my test in two weeks, be glad when its over haha and ive also got my parachute drop rating and glider tow rating, so im trying to push every option.
The 5 hour thing was just an exageration, i already have a multi endorsement in the companies aircraft, along with a couple of other ratings with variable prop and retractable. But yes i agree there is a big step up, and i have budgeted for 15 hours plus a flight test.
