Paramount self sponsored program
Hi everyone,
Paramount airways, based in Chennai recently had advertised for openings for Trainee First officer on the E170/90.
I called up their office and also got in touch with a pilot working in Paramount.
the deal is that you need to pay them Rs 25Lakh upfront for the Type Rating.
Please share your views/comments regarding this program.
Any idea how much Paramount f/os are paid during their training and once they are released ??
any inputs/advices appreciated ! Thanks !

Thanks Schumi....
@Ad...Line training is what you get when you work with the airlines, to familiarize you with its own SOP after you get a type rating from a training flight school. You normally fly as a co-pilot with the training captain
If it's like what Bad A. says it may be, then it doesn't look good especially in this economic environment. It's not exactly a govt. owned airline, where you can more or less have a semblence of a stable career.
Anyway I'll reserve judgment for now as I donot have much info on the company. Paramount Pilots, what say?
