Parachute dropping
Hello folks,
I hope I've posted this in a suitable forum.
I've done the expected background trawling for information on this but I'd appreciate some views from those who may be or were in the know. What were your experiences, background etc. Did you do it for hour building or is it your vocation ?
I'm one of the billion or so fATPL(A) holders in the UK and am trying to get my foot in the door. I'd love to be called in one day to a large operator and sat in the RHS but realistically speaking, that's unlikely to happen. Also, I'm a bit older than most starting out so I'm looking for something that I'll stick with.
Like many of us, I just want to fly. I'm well aware of the skill level required do be a good drop pilot and it really appeals.
I'm sure there are loads of views on this. If you've got a sledge-hammer opinion on everything like some people I read then please move on, otherwise, please reply.
Regards.
