Thanks

Beagle and courtney

Thanks for your quick replies. You did confirm my concerns about the unlikeliness of a crossover, I shall ask anyway, no harm in that! And I'm sure leaving with a large number of a330 hours couldn't hurt. Who knows it might even reinvigorate my esprit de corps, they were all out of that in stores when I checked!

The rotary civvy world doesn't really appeal, Having spoken to a few short and long haul pilots I've decided that's what best for me, wifey and young-un.

I understand that on the change over to EASA the rules for QSP are likely to change, as I understand it at the moment my previous fixed wing time, few hours Cessna and basic training on firefly would count as well as a MCC qual from my rotary experiance, but that in the interim I would need to make up 500 hrs at my own expense and pay for the licenses and exams. Is that correct?
