oh, its a big deal. i had 991 hours, and i made it 1000, on flights i were backseat i logged it as flying hour, and under faa regulations u can log those hours.. and shame on u, i didnt do it in jaa country. i had 14 hours of flying in oslo once i passed my cpl/me. i dont care either, i got my job quickly and didnt stress about it like others do. and soon i will be on a330 so im proud of myself, and please try to find a captain or fo today who didnt fake any hours, i can promise u that u need to look for a long time. or maybe im just stupid who admits everything and dont look back.
but one thing is sure, once i begin to fly jet i wont do anything illegal.
sure be carefull about the norwegians, they will probably land a job more quickly than others. and we dont have any degrees before we start the pilot study, and its normal to see a 21 year norwegian flying a jet all over europe and many in Qatar aswell.
