Curios how many have the type at the interview but I know probably not a known number. Not cheap but doable. Thanks in advance!
What they said. Flew with some that had a type, but all of those flew the plane. Just the type with 0 hours is (IMO) worthless. Over 90% of the people i've flown with in the past 8 years got hired without it.
