@ barberpol

How did you get your first aviation job huh?
It simply doesnt happen the way you said it.


@ piya,
I have been researching about these TRs for quite some time now.
B200 TR done from abroad just needs the NOC, no papers wit the DGCA.

If you have an assured job at the end of it or not.. Sim is the best.
It keeps costs down significantly, even the Sim goes for $600 an hour. plus ground school and stay and other formalities, even a B200 TR goes for $14000.

Do that in an aircraft and it goes upto $20000.

Either way, if you have a job to look forward to, paying for actual aircraft is useless.
If you dont, 10 hours in a B200 isnt going to be any help at all.

Atleast keep it cheap..


TR on a B200 is also a gamble of sorts.
Only about 2 openings every year.

And the NSOPs arent exactly a place where you can walk in with zero hours and zero connections...


Consider wisely.

Best Luck.
