Thanks again for the advice. One thing I dont understand is what pilots in the EU do to build hours. Here in the US many pilots I know flight instruct, fly single engine part 135 flights, banner tow, give scenic flights etc. However on here I see many forums with pilots who have 250 hours, a fATPL, complaining about how they cant get a job with an airline like BA because they dont have enough hours?
Mainly because in the USA there are a lot more GA jobs than in Europe. I've never seen a banner being towed in the UK for myself, scenic flights are often done by small operators and you'd be very lucky to get a job with them. Whereas in the US I know there are a lot of companies that do pipe line inspections and that hardly exists in the UK.
It's a different ball game over here. We have very little GA jobs compared to the US.
How do we build hours to get to BA? Work for Ryanair.
