Couldnīt agree more FlyingForFun,

Really enjoying the training here in Jerez, especially this IR stuff which I just started a couple of weeks ago. Luckily the ATPL exams are behind me

Hulk must have the misfortune to know the least lucky low hours guys around. Out of Jerez I could name about 25% of the grads of the last 6 months who are now flying (or about to: busy type rating) jets or turbo props. Sure its a !!!!e percentage but itīs not zero. Others are busting their ass looking, getting a few hours instructing, spending time in jet sims to keep current, one I know of is meat-bombing (aka parachute drops - why do people want to jump out of a/c??!!)
