There are really no requirements to work for this mob, they advertise a minimum PPL etc, but it's really up to the 'Franchisee' who they hire. I know peeps who only had a GFPT and did the job no worries. Any homebody die-hard flight simmer could manage it with their eyes shut and the sim can be rated under cat D regs which is bugger-all really.
As for all the hype about what ya do or don't need for working at one of these centers it's a load of horses Mate. Ya gotta keep it in perspective as it's largely an "entertainment device" in a retail environment used for ya average punter who wants to feel they can land a jet!
Having said that they also offer interview flights etc, and hopefully if ya jag one of these "way cheaper and for good reason" ya might be lucky enough get an actual pilot who has some line experience who does this sort of thing for fun or to simply relieve the boredom.
The sim itself is a pretty good mockup and serves many of the functions of the real bird, but for a measly $15 - $25 an hour, go work somewhere else and save the pilot outfit for a real job......
I know this because I used to do it!!
