There are just no jobs in Europe in any area, never mind flying.
I think the loss of the self improved route has made it harder, as has the reduction in number of turboprop operating airlines offering that essential next step...brymon, manx, channex, jersey european, loganair, business air, eurodirect, aurigny...the list goes on. How many of those TP jobs left.
Now you can either pay/ pass the ezy/ryr tests or that's about it in the uk.
It's not even easy as a n experienced guy. I have over 5 years experience as a capt on 100 T + jets, I've been pretty much unemployed for a year....
