Thanks Danny for the transcript! As I couldn't join the fun the other evening the transcript helped answer a few questions.

Does anyone know how many applications are received to date (I know from the transcript it was about 60)?

Good Luck to all - its just a shame there are not going to be the same amount of places as applicants for the scheme.

JAR approved 737 type ratings?
 

Could any body please tell me where I might be able to do a JAR 737 type rating? USA or Europe. And, secondly does anybody know if the low cost carriers which operate 737s except non JAR approved 737 type ratings? Any information on where, when and how much with regard to 737 type ratings will be appreciated.

Thanks.

To my knowledge no USA outfit has approval to do a JAR 737 type rating. In the UK it costs around £15K. I do not know how the 737 operators in the UK view a 'bought' rating, anyone..?

Flight Safety Boeing might --- not sure. GECAT does a 737 rating at Gatwick.

FlightSafety Boeing do indeed have a sim centre at Luton. The link below to their website also says they do JAR ratings in Seattle. Anyone know the cost at Luton v's USA?

and here's the GECAT link

<a href="http://www.gecat.com/self2.asp" target="_blank">Self Sponsored Type Ratings</a>

Gecat want £14K+ vat for the course plus £4K for the LPC on the aircraft, thats £20.5K !! Geez, the Ryanair deal looks better after all! <img src="eek.gif" border="0">

Seriously, who the hell can afford to do a 'self sponsored type rating' with Gecat? Rich kids only looks like, and there are too many of those in this industry already... <img src="mad.gif" border="0">

Thanks for the replies guys. It will help alot. I'm currently trying to decide whether to take an upgrade to a bigger turbo prop and be bonded for 2 years for about US$20000,- or to let it shoot and get a 737 type rating. But, after reading all the stories here it seems I have a very luxurious decision to make. I do know where some of you guys are coming from because I've been there. Thanks again and good luck. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

737 type rating??
 

Hello,. .. .I'd like to know which are the requirements for the 737 type rating according the JAA.. .I'm interested in the 737 type rating at CSA, and about the simulator, they explane :" The FFS certification was done according to the European JAR-STD-1A standards; both the Motion and Visual systems fully comply with the Level D standard and were certified ". .What is this Level D?

According to JAR-FCL1 you need:. .1)at least 100 hours as pilot in command of airplanes.. .2)have a valid multi-engine instrument rating.. .3)hold a certificate of satisfactory completion of multi-crew co-operation(MCC). .4)have the JAR-FCL ATPL(A)theory passed.. .Ciao!!

Hi Swedish,. .How much is it going to cost for the CSA type rating? I heard that the cost is about 22,000USD.. .Where are you going to do your base and line training?
