They told me that there is no guarantee of a job, but they have fixed me up with a jump seat ride with one of the first officers that came out of the course six months ago. They tell me that there will be positions for first officers in the coming months as they have got a new contract next year and are getting a new aircraft for it. I agree with the ususal argument that it isn't worth getting say a 737 type rating as no airline in their right mind is gonna take you on with say one hour on type. This one seems a little different though cos as well as being a TRTO they are also a well established cargo operator.
I guess I'll have to wait and see what they tell me after the jump seat ride.
