Hey All
Firstly, I have read a lot on PRUNE about ICUS and I dont wanna stir any s*** up but I do have some general questions.
Firstly, bridging the gap between a fresh CPL with 150 hours and that first job is always going to be hard. I hear companies up 'north' want anywhere between 200 and 500 min hours before they will even look at you. So where do you go from there?
People say meatbombing is a good way of building up those required hours. That's all well and good if you have the min 10 hours on type for the type of acft that company operates. But for those that didnt do their COMM training in a 182 or 210, how does one go about getting these 10 hours on type? I have spoken to a few meatbombing companies and there is no chance that they're going to give ICUS away for free. So how do you go about getting these hours? Pay for them?
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. No this isn't a wind up
