Not a wannabe anymore (sort of!!)

Well everyone, I got the final letter from Cabair today, and i'm now the proud owner of a KLMuk sponsorship!

I'm off to bed to dream of Fokker 50's.

Happy Flyings,

Sagey,

Initial training is at Cranfield for 6 months - ATPL Theory, CPL, FI(R) and then off to a Cabair school for 2 years with IRI upgrade, MEP along the way.

Only then do I get the KLMuk job.

Regards,

STurns

Ennie,

Thanks - Are you a DEP or did you go the Cabair route as well?

Regards,

STurns

PS A little dickybird tells me the F50's might not be around for much longer?

Ennie,

I believe the fleet will be consolidated to Ford Mondeos. Apparently the mileage and cost per seat kilometre is very good.

The cargo version (nee. estate) also has an excellent baggage capacity.

Anyone know how long the type rating takes??
