Type Rating & Line Trainning. Help Needed!!

Hello Everyone!

Hope all of you will be in good Health. Want to know about some authentic and realiable Type Rating and line training of A320 OR 737 NG Companies in Middle East or in Europe. Company should have a good repute. Just fed up with the online fraud. So kindly me help me out. Anybody who have any such experience? and what do you recommend should i go for this option?

Thanks.

There are many very good type rating and line training organizations- the caveat being you need to be selected for employment by them first!!

If you need to pay an organization for line training, their reputability is automatically diminished.

I think Sun Express in Turkey may be the best of a bad lot.

What is you current experience level? Might you not look at getting a flying job with your current qualifications to get the required experience to move up?

Google .. first officer programs. There are few. Nothing going to be cheap. You need a type rating you pay yourself..etc.

I understand there are a lot of scams.. sadly to say.. most scam operators are from India.. where are the most unemployed CPL holders are. So scammers are everywhere.


Ok are EAGLEJET MIAMI. a few friends had dealing with them.. trustworthy.

Enter the Air Force or a National Government-paid pilot school, and you will not have to pay anything - and you will get a pension also.
If you are not good enough, then pay (and start saving for your pension)

The reason is simple: even with TR and linetraining you still need to pass the selection of reputable airlines.... So what will happen: you pay a lot of money for TR and Linetraning and end up without a job because either you or your trainingpartner was cr@p.....

THAT is the reason you do not find REPUTABLE linetraining companies... It is a money making scam for the ATO and you are only a side consideration.

I have seen guys that were trained by Baltic and after a minimal 737TR they still had NO clue on what to do in a 73 cockpit... EnterAir? even worse... Every single guy that were looked at by us for an EU airline were send back... (now the funny thing: Enter Air was used as a wetlease by the same airline LOL)

So the answer: stay away. If you cannot find a job in the current market go and do some additional JOC or similar training with a proper ATO with links to airlines. Stay away from line training programs and if you do go for them dont come back crying in a year or so....

ps did you do any research before starting your training??

I agree with White Knight.

If you are willing to travel to PAY to fly, why not travel to GET PAID.

There are ways to get a foot in the door- go somewhere where skydiving and gliding are popular and fly jump-planes or tugs. Go to Africa and fly a 206.

There are ways- and they will give you experiences and memories (not to mention skills and self-confidence) that you won't get warming a seat in some dodgy outfits PTF program.

So funny. So you are one of those who would never have a got a pilot seat anywhere, along with the shiny uniform, without the MONEY of your parents. No wonder why pilots are often despised by cabin crew, who simply didn't have the MONEY.
Fortunately those idiots have to pay for training, then for type-rating, then for line experience now, which puts them on big financial strain for years, unless of course it's totally paid for by the parents, which is usually the case - and then they start putting money aside to build a pension which the usual companies will not provide. So in fact they know that they will have miserable old years - and so they revert to real estate scams as if often the case in ME, or even better some FOREX because after all they are uneducated and illiterate in a lot of areas - so they lose MONEY again.

Eagle jet ? Line training 100,000 usd is the price you'll pay

You'll most likely be scammed half way
