I have to admit that the idea of paying for a type-rating doesn't thrill me, but everybody has to make a decision relative to their own situation, and I have to make a decision that works for me in the long term. (looking forward, not back at the good old days).
Is easyJet a place you can stay for 10 years, many allude to rosters that will kill you, without quantifying - how many flight hours per year are typical please (LGW CAPT)? Approx how many days working and how many standby on FRV123?
And if cares to share... anybody who has been offered direct entry command at LGW... what's being offered? PPJN talks about new-joiners getting random rosters, but "once permanent"??? - Is it a fixed contract being offered to captains???
Thanks for any info.
