Think you are out if luck...
And have you ever met a commuter Pilot with TIME to travel? Lol
Think you need to Honestly look at what you think the job will entail...
Most companies will laugh at you wanting to work a year after doing 2 months if training, then IOE for another month (or more depending on assignments)....1/3 of your year is already gone....
Sorry to be the voice if reason...
No worries, I’m looking for a reasonable answer! Like I said, it was just an idea I had, just wanted to see if it’s feasable.
I don’t mind spending a couple thousand $ on testing for a euro certificate if I need to, but I can’t really justify a $30+k full euro ATP course when I already have an FAA ATP.
And I figure I don’t have to tell them I’m planning on leaving in a year’s time, right? Do most commuter jobs usually have contracts where you’re obligated to stay for x number of years? If yes, then yeah, seems like I’m out of luck, but if not then I figure I can just leave the job whenever I want, right?
