Good grief! This thread is back from the dead and still we have new idiots who read the offer, then read this thread and still thinks it:
sounds about right
So aircraft insurance is now a personal expense for the pilot is it? Perhaps they could bump the cost of the rating up to a couple of million because you've got to take into account fuel and spare parts. Still, it sounds about right. Sometimes I despair.
Incidentally Tailwind, a 737-200 is not a 737 Classic (hence my reference to Jurassic in my earlier post). It is not a common type rating with the 737 300 to 900 and is frankly worthless as there are virtually no 200s operating in the civilized world. If you want to blow 45k to lock your career options into flying an obsolete jet in 3rd world
for blacklisted carriers with no job security and still be 9 grand worse off than if you just chilled out on a beach and did nothing for the next two years, then crack on. Sounds great.
