I get it.... Whereas before you could get away with an LPC now they insist on a full recurrent?
Whilst I can see their point with required training what I can't get is the completely crazy costs! They played the same trick with me. Forget freelance, half your wages or more will go on trg! It's have a fulltime job on the Gulf or forget the whole deal? Lose that job and very quickly you can find yourself kissing a very expensive type goodbye and then what? The whole situation is untenable and yet these training snakes are getting rich at the expense of destroying pilot's careers! It is a disgraceful situation.
