Hi Guys.
Im Passionate about my career and really want to fly long haul freight.
Im keen to go anywhere.
I have
British Passport
South African Passport
3500 hours total
ALTP ICAO
1000 pic jet small jet ( hawker, Premier 1 )
1800 EFIS

Are there any companies that offer training bonds to fly big arcraft for them.
Where do I look?
Thanks guys :ok:
In Europe, you've got Cargolux, with B744's in Luxembourg and Global Supply Systems, with B744's in London. Both outfits use a standard bond system over 3 years, ie no bank loans/money up front etc.

744s will be ultimate.
Any Ideas who to contact with these companies?
Would they accept ICAO ALTP?
Any Gen. please advise ;)

If you want some adventure, go try the MK boys. I'm not touting their T&C's, but you will see the world and learn a lot. The chaps I've met have been great guys.
All the best

Yeah, Have been interested in Mk. A lot of south african boys there.
They require a JAR and I only have an ICAO ALTP :ugh:
Would it be worth financing and doing my own 744 rating somewhere to get started. Make easier to get a job?

TNT do not bond their pilots. They now have four 744Fs but you must have a JAR licence.

Why not start with the best type for your entrance into freighter long haul....B742s...seriously,
there are many more of them about and the three crew environment (assuming the FE is a real FE), is so much better for the initial learning!
Give it some thought...
Cheers...FD...:ok:
