What a total disappointment! I have been looking forward to this scheme for months and this is the best they can come up with!
Out of interest does anybody know how much this type rating (and extra sim) will cost? Just for the 'chance' of an interview.
Obviously it is just aimed at people who are going to pay for a rating without the offer of a job anyway. Most people I know who have done (or would do) that, would normally go to Ryanair if possible or a cheaper TRTO like Baltic.
Also no mention of a wage during the 2nd officer program, so if that's 6 months without pay in Dubai - good luck! It's extremely expensive to live there!
