What Next?
So, this has probably been touched on many, many times, but I keep getting slightly conflicting information.
I have a PPL, 47 hours, but so far, that's it. I want to get my (f)ATPL - want to fly for an airline, so want to get to the stage where the ONLY extra thing I need to do is a type rating - as soon (but also as cheaply) as possible.
Can someone please explain to me the exact process I need to go through, in terms of which licenses and ratings I need, in what order, and what the hours requirements are to a) be eligible to start that license/rating, and b) how many hours are required to do that license/rating?
I will then use this to give me an accurate (assuming minimal hours) cost, and to find out whether it's worth me buying a share in an aircraft, or even going all out and buying something like an Evans VP-1.
Any help and words of wisdom greatly appreciated.
