Darn that is a bummer , didn't know that , so all that time is worthless?? Guess that I have to find 3 more months and 80 hours of 152 to make it up and I thought that was the highlight of my resume

Hey Piloto, do you have any links online to where we can look at how CAE is offering that "type rating"? We would like to see this.

He most likely went to CAE for a part 91 SIC course in the Phenom. You don't do a real checkride for a 91 course you just get the type at the end. You can also just do 3 bounces in it and get a type from the FSDO.

I mean, it's not completely worthless. Future employers are going to look favorably on the fact that you had jet training. It just won't count towards total time.

It's a single pilot airplane, so kind of. 80 hours seems low for them to have been working 135 or 91k, which would be the only two cases you could log SIC in a single pilot airplane.

No links , I worked for a 135 operator in a management position and the owner gave me the chance to go for the type rating,it was the whole training 3 weeks at Dallas and 7 SIM sessions with a checkride at the end. Got the endorsement on my license for SIC priveleges only but I never completed the 135 checkride so I just jumped in it everytime that I could on the 91 legs under the impression that I was building time. Well it was good experience and hopefully the endorsement will look good in my license for future employers.

Is there any VFR Captain hiring going on? What are they flying per month? Same pay as IFR Capts? Do you stay on air frame/base at IFR mins or can you move to another?

The VFR captain positions aren't super competitive, they typically get people who are less experienced on multi-engine aircraft to fly them if I recall correctly.

hey Sobo,

I was wondering if you heard anything about that waiver and what it gear toward i.e. VFR 135 for IFR 135 or is it a Captain slot?

Thanks for looking into that.

It's a captain thing after a couple hundred hours in the SIC program. Essentially bridges the gap between VFR and IFR mins, and has it's own restrictions.

I'd love to post the details, but I've only heard it by word of mouth, and we want to be 100% accurate when we post things on here. I'd like to see it in writing.
