Don't know what I'll do with B777 and no time but WTH its free so why not get it. 13 day course with prior Boeing glass time.
Don't you have to have a conditional offer of employment before using that funding? I'm working with two guys right now via the NEG funding, one for the E170/190 and the other on the A320. They were both able to get the funding because they found jobs if they could get typed.
If you ARE interested in a corporate type, let me know and I can have the sales manager for your region at Simuflite contact you. They went through all of the paperwork and hoops the same time I did and have already put a couple of the NEG funding guys through in Dallas and Morristown.
