Got my first Job.
 

Hey guys and gals,

just wanted to say i just got my first job flying the B737. I did a SSTR with Astraeus in March.

This email is just to say never give up, always follow your dream and keep workin at it..... it will all come good.

Its alot of hard work, but worth it when its all over..

all the best B

p.s congrats to raspberry aswell.

Well done mate!!! Hope you get to enjoy it for many years to come!

well done bail out....although i am sure the fact that you gave them 25,000 pounds helped a bit!

Didnt hand over any money for a job. Spent £19K on more training with an excellent TRO ( Astraeus ) to increase my chances. My class of which i think there was 16 of us only about 4 without jobs... last time i looked.

Just a continuation of training.

Chin up

ok....just re-read your first post and i thought i read you did a sstr?

does that stand for a 'self sponsored type rating' ?

perhaps i am confused.

Yeah, but its that little bit more training that is helping guys get jobs. This wasnt suppose to become a SSTR debate.

Irrespective of how you got there, 400 hrs TT and onto the jets...:ok:

19k seems to be a bit cheap for a 737tr. Is that without the VAT :yuk:

Excellent news,

Which operator did you find work with?

Gr8 stuff... Congrats.

I had 300 TT when I stepped onto 737.

Enjoy your time on bobby :D

Cheers mate. see you soon.

Hey congratulations guys.

If you were on the March course at Astraeus then have you just finished line training?

Might be joining you!!!

Well done to Bail out and all the others who have found gold.

Its so refreshing to read some happy stories, but good on you lot for going out there, using your initiative and making it happen.

Maybe this will wake up all those Wannabes who are so anti-pay for your own rating or similar schemes. Its becoming more and more obvious that this is now the way forward, and if you think its wrong, think twice about getting into the industry or at least lower your expectations of flying jets!

Nice one guys I hope it ends up being what you've always dreamt about.

Congrats Bail Out :O

MAy I ask Who you have a job with. I have also done a SSTR with line training but have had no luck yet securing first paying job!

Cheers and well done

CM:ok:

Congrats boys...

I started with the same firm 4 weeks ago and also did the Astraeus thingy.

The views are well worth the wait - mainly around the office though.
