Hi everyone,
I'm planning on converting my current ICAO CPL/IR to a UKCAA and EASA CPL (same training for both licenses) in September 2021. I understand that an MCC course is required for joining an airline in UK or EU, which is my ultimate goal. However opportunities are still limited in light of COVID, and don't look to be improving soon. I am considering going down the FITC route after my conversion, however ultimately I will still need to do the MCC course. The FI route will set me back around £10k GBP, but I don't see any other route to remain current and continue building hours for now.
I would appreciate suggestions or recommendations regarding this! Would you recommend doing the FI, or just doing the MCC and start sending out CVs?
Thank you.
