737 type rating currency

Hi All,
I was just wondering...
A) If one self funds a 737 type rating how long before you have to think about acting to keep it current?
B) What do you need to do to keep it current whilst looking for a job?
c) and MOST importantly at what sort of cost??

Many thanks
Foil

Question A is asking how long is the rating current for, question B is asking what he/she has to do to keep it current.

Sorry Foil, I dont know the answers, just wanted to explain the difference to sm.

737 type Rating

Hi Aerofoil,
My understanding from Lasors is that the rating is valid for 12 months and you can revalidate by doing a proficiency check within the three months preceding the date of expiry. However you also require 10 sectors flying experience and if you dont have this then you have to do one sector with a CAA examiner. This can be part of the profeciency test.
I am posting the link to Lasors and the section you require is F4.
Regards

Talking B737-200 TR ???

Hi ;-)
I am a 737-300/900 rated pilot.
I am holding a french-JAA licence.
I would like to extend my rating to the old 200 model.
Does anybody know a TRTO who can do that?
THX
Bye

B737 Rating With 100hrs on type....

Hi all

I'm just trying to gauge everyones view, preferably those who are actively within airline recruitment, of guy/gals with a 737 rating and 100hrs on type's likelyhood of gaining employment in the uk of lets say within 6 months of having this experience? I am not trying to start another debate on whether paying for a rating or hours is right or wrong, i and i am sure others are purely interested in informed peoples views on the likelyhood of employment within 6 months in the uk of gaining this experience.

Many thanks in advance

I'd give you a chance of 4-5%.
If you were talking turboprop I would give you a higher chance.
It also depends a bit on your overall experience. If you have heavy experience apart from those 100 hrs, that will make things different but I guess were talking 250 hrs light planes of which 15 hrs are ME and no multi crew experience? In that case you have my answer at the top...

If you were willing to leave the UK with your B737 and a 100hrs , your odds are much higher. Probably around 80%.

It's just a bandwagon with to many people on it. Why not do something "radical" and get yourself an instructor rating?
