Yes, getting back after a 5 year gap is tough since most airlines and contract agencies are requiring last flight on type in seat (PIC) within the last 6-24 months (min to max). However, as the previous poster stated, the demand is increasing while the supply appears to be dwindling. Based on the posted requirements, all I need is a flight on type (ferry flight etc) to meet the requirement or a circuit around the patch since I have plenty of time on the
A/C (200/700/800/900ER). An airline I worked for(2007) needed B737NG Captains rather urgently and was willing to take guys with any PIC Boeing time (B747,B727,B757/B767). The catch was they had to get their own type rating and sit in the right seat with a check captain for X amount of hours to satisfy the regulators. Not in a big rush but exploring options. |
