Hi,
I am only about to start my initial training and by the end I will have CPL and ATPL theory. I also have the choice between a multi engine gas turbine rating, or an instructor rating or both. Both cost about $18k. Which would be best?
I know the pay isn't so good in instructing, but I could live with that for a year or so. If I did, how many hours do you reckon a newbie G3 instructor would clock and is it worth the low pay.
Or is charter the better option? If so, does any one know how many hours and how much a rookie charter pilot will get? I've looked at so many charter companies and they all require ATPL's and atleast 1500h PIC.
If I were to go charter, can anyone give me the names of some charter companies that would hire a rookie; Preferably in Regional Victoria, Melborne or Adelaide.
Seriously, any advice I am grateful for; your going out of your way to answer and its all helping me.
Thanks heaps.
