JOC Advice Request
As many operators are now insisting that applicants have completed a JOC, I have decided to take the plunge and commit to completing a JOC and have distilled my choices down to a couple:
CRM Aviation - 1 day course, only 4 hrs sim time, 'only' £785 cost, commutable from my home (just) and plenty of positive feedback and recommendations on PPRuNe.
Stapleford Flight Centre - 2 day course, 9 or 10 hrs sim time, £995 cost, not commutable from my home.
My chief concern with CRM Europe is that there is only 4 hrs sim time versus double that time for £200 more at SFC and I am concerned that the employers who insist on candidates having a JOC would look down their noses at such a low number of sim hours.
Therefore I would be extremely grateful to hear your thoughts on these courses and my concern over the CRM JOC lack of hours.
Especially interested to hear from ladies and gents who have completed stand alone JOCs with either of these FTOs and have gone on to land that elusive first job.
Happy to receive replies on open forum or PM
