C-208 Caravan type rating in Australia

[KSV]

Hi there,
Anyone knows any good FTO in Australia for Cessna-208 Caravan type rating training in Australia?
Thanks,
KSV

Peter Gash at Seair at Coolangatta has C208 endorsement approval. I did mine with Adrian Billing but I'm not sure where he is or if he is still available to do them.

I second Seair, good training and more than likely some ICUS thrown in as part of the package if you ask.

Is it ever heard of that seair employ sometimes after paying for the 208 rating? or are they pretty much set for pilots. SO

Once again how long is a piece of string, it all depends if you are there at the right time... But without sounding condescending, unless you have close to 1000 (750+) I wouldn't bother paying for an endorsement with Seair if your view is to obtain employment, they tend not to put guys on the van below about 800, no matter how much turbine or van time you already have. Instead you could consider a BN2 endo, as they operate 4 of the old ladies
