Thumbs up Yaaaahoooooo!

I've done it!
Got the news this morning, I start my first job in two weeks.
Some kind sole has found the heart to let me lose on a 737-200, and pay me for it!
I still cant beleive it.
I would like to thank everyone for their encouragement and support that I've read from other threads. You have all kept me going and kept me positive for the past 7 months of unemployment and boredom.
Cheers Guys

Thanks guys
Just a quick note to say there is hope in this world, I can not believe my luck, I have been training for three years (drips and drabs) and I have got a 'jet job' with only 253 hrs.
The jobs with EAL down south in Bournemouth.
Cant wait till I start

Question

Which flightschool did you attend and are you JAA certified?

Do they have a web-site, where do I apply ?

Sorry for all these tedious questions.

Thanks

Tor

Wow you lucky bu**er from this I understand that you're a self-improver...

You really are in a minority being hired with those hours, to jets as well. WELL DONE! There's hope for us all yet!

Congrats Scarebus..

just a question.. how the heck to you get hired by a jet outfit with 200 hours?!!!!!
I also have ATPL ground credits, Bachelors Degree, multi engine instrument rating and CPL. And I've only just done my first ever Air Transport Operation flight.. a scenic charter in a C172... thats all my hard work over 3 years has qualified me for...

Maybe its time for a change of scenery....

Well done scarebus!!

I wish you well in your new job! It will be lots and lots of fun! I got my first job on B737-3s with 200 hours.. it's a steep learning curve- but great fun!
