Soory it is not about a type rating but just Intercockpit.
So, do you know this school ? they seem very helpfull to the students! they not guarante a job ( I think nothing is garanted in the life...) but they help student to find a job, intercockpit makes the difference, doesn't it ?
How many schools help their students pilot in Europe ? 3 or 4 ?
I'm i France and none school help us, so I have to go to an other country...
I know Oxford, but it is for Integrated, modular avoid it!
I know too Flight training europe, but they stop modular course
and...Intercockpit, they offer modular course.
how do you think about it ?

Please......
Remember the Number one reason these type rating places are in business is to TAKE/GET your money. They are not there to help you at all.
They all blow smoke to get your $$$.
And Wow,I must be out of touch with the hiring in the Eu If sub 3,000 pic is an entry level...B737 job.
Here in the states. 2,000 hour gets you a job asking " do you want to super size that",
And you'd make more $$ at the fast food place than swinging gear for $30/hr.
Most of the new hire fo's i'm flying with have 7,000+ large/heavy time
I wish you good luck, everyone was low time at some point.

Whaledog my friend things are indeed somewhat different here in the Europe regarding recuitment. Yes many get jobs with the right combination of training and experience (on relevant aircraft types) here in UK at least, not all but the lucky few still do.
Anyway back to the thread; Intercockpit are a good setup (as I've heard from a Captain who's a family relative) however not aware that they really help you find a job anymore than other TRTOs. I have nevertheless noticed a 'job engine' kind of thing on their website so maybe they can help to certain extent. Beware though this might only be effective for German speakers i.e. Germans, Austrians and a couple of locales in neioghbouring regions.
Anyway good luck.

When they don't specify nor mention Line training on their website or course documentation then why and how could they help you get line training? Come on my friend there's no easy short cuts in aviation. Maybe keep your type rating 'tucked away' not to help you land your first job directly on to a jet but to prove to another employer that you have the ability to operate such level of aircraft. Then once you build time and experience within the airline you could apply to the fleet of your type rating.... do you see what I'm trying to get at? We would all like to go straight onto our chosen aircraft type but whilst we're waiting to do that maybe we can have 2 avenues to attack the problem.
Best of luck my friend.
Best of luck my friend.

No, no my friend, I just felt that 'perhaps' there might be a bias towards German speaking airlines which are also coincidently local to the area of where Intercockpit is located.
I speak English and one non-European laguage but I'm still planning to go there but don't depend on Intercockpit to beat a path for you top your first job that's all. I'm sure they'll help as much as they can but with every organisation there is only so much they can practically do.
Good luck ....

Left wing, it's too easy to say that! Tell me what airline employ after the TR! No one! If it was so, why there are a lot of guys on the ground?
I don't think that if I attend a type rating course with SAS or with Iberia or others they will offer me a job.....

I was in Zadar last year for an instructor course,
the first impression was good , good plane nice maintenece, nice weather,
but I have to say they are absolutely disorganised. The estimated time for the course was 4 weeks amd we end with 4 month.
Sameone left the course. A lot of complain, they arrange accomodation with local people , so no hep at all, eaven to find an house. Instructors somethimes strike!! for very strange reason, and they have not idea how to do the sillabus. I.E on the instructor course you have to do Spins, everibody know that, but they discover when the course was finished and they just tell us, go somewere ,do the spins and came back for the exams.
Absolutely shocking.

Finally i visited them on frankfurt airport, i tell shortly how did it go like i promised.
Firts of all, everything looked well organized. Place was nice, lot of lufthansa people around.
Zero to atpl price is 64,900€, + accommodation in frankfurt (5800€ 10 months) and in Zadar (2000€ 5 months).
About the employment, they said that 97% of their students has find jobs in airline network (in this moment: Lufthansa Cityline, Air Berlin, Contact Air, Croatia Airlines, Eurowings, Ausburg Airways, SunExpress, Freebird, Fly Niki). About half of them requires to know german language. Oh yea, and they are working on few big fish
Please ask if u wanna know something, feel free to send pm too! I will answer weekend if i have holidays.
Isnt here any person who is now studying on intercockpit?

I'm about to sign for the modular theory course. I know some guys at the local aero-club that trained with them & were quite happy.
A friend of mine who is a training captain from LH Cityline said that they were impressed with the facilities, and thought I wouldn't be wasting my money if I continued my training there. That was six months ago, I intend to give him a call in the next couple of weeks - will let you guys know.

Hi,
I would like to hear from somebody who has experience of this feature offered from Intercockpit to all people who have completed a Type Rating course.
Is it really effective?
Is it worth to complete a TR with them?
Thanks for your help!
