paying for experience

is there another company like Eagle Jet that offers jet experience for money ?

(being 42 and holding a limited ICAO passport, its my last chance to step up from the horrible reciprocates to something bigger..)

It's called P2W.
They need you to help them to pay their oil bill.

maybe your bad attitude?

if you were more positive and optimist, you would get a job in 2 days!
it' s all in the attitude, mate!

Search for "line training" in google or here om forum. Or "eagle jet" and u will find other companies, offering you that.

Eaglejet offer training both in europe (I think Bulgaria or something) and US. Where did u get that they do it in muslim countries?

Although, I would recommend to stay away from p2f

avieh7,

Would you be willing to pay for your own type rating? If so, why don't you go for an Airbus rating?

hey guys.
I heard about this scheme and i would like to know if any of you knows something more about it.

There's a Jordanian company which helps young pilots to get their ratings and their first job. First you pay them a couple of thousands euros, they'll get you into a TRTO so you can get the type-rating, and then they will have someone who is responsible to get you into an airline to do a line training of about 300-500hours , depending on how much you pay them. So in the end you have to pay something like 50 thousand euros for the type rating and the hours of line training and them when you get to the line training they say they pay you around 8000USD and 10% goes to the guy who got you that job.

I don't have any name or place what so ever, but i was told that this is happening in jordania.

I read about this pay $30,000 + get time but not the time promised, and then kick out of the program after the contract expires but youve only flown less than half of what was promise

all these schemes are interested by one thing only: your money, and nothing else.

if you think an airline will be nice with you, or friendly, and they will help you later , you are wrong. airlines are here to make money, they don't care about you, about your future, or if you finish in the streets dying of hunger. it s not their damn business to take care of your well being and take care of your little family.they don't care about you...



they want your money! this is how it works. if you don't understand that, i pity you!

why pilots are paid you will ask me then? well, they are paid because airlines don't have the choice. but as long some idiots don't understand that basic economical principle , airlines will continue to work with these p2F schemes.

understand this time? or should i see your dad and explain him how this world work?
