Spaceman is actually Morrisey

just a few of your recent quotes...


I have given up to look for a job as a pilot, it is pointless.
I have sent probably 500CV, 500 Email, call manager, friends:
THERE IS NO ONE JOB !!!same like in 1992

I have seen some guys who told me they will go to the USA to become a commercial pilot.They are unwawe of the market situation, they think with 200h and a CPL, they will fly for an airline or a coporate



they know some pilots have enough money to pay their type...it is all about money. If you want fly a jet, find he money or say goodbye to the aviation business.

it is simply digusting but it is like that, it is a fact!
and soon, a type rating will be a minimum requirement to apply.(it is already)

if you consider a career in aviation, ad 50% after your ATP frozen.
(100'000 euro???or 125000$? sounds correct?)
if you can not find this money, I would suggest you to do another job because by the time you finish your training (in 2 years), it will be 200'000 euro.
(probably we will have to be rated on 2-3 planes in same time)



I have same hours like you, same licenses.
I have looked fore 12 months, wrote hundred of email, contacted people,I have many references, call my friends who are pilots after they filed bankrupt and sold their house for their ex-wife, their kids are in the streets in RO beging for money.

My conclusion is : you have to be damn lucky to find a job as a pilot.
With no type rating, your chance to get a job are close of 0.0001%, with a type rating:0.01%, with 300h on type:0.1% after 30 years old, your chance go back to 0.0000001%

Do not give up, You will meet many students here with no job, who will tell you: go ahead, their is a pilot shortage.

Good luck!

So how does it work out if you are over 30 with no Type Rating

your chance to get a job are close of 0.0001%, with a type rating:0.01%, with 300h on type:0.1% after 30 years old, your chance go back to 0.0000001%
I was never any good at maths. However I know of a few guys who are on or are about to leave for type ratings that are over 30.

Me included.

Keep looking
