Re: Newbie Pilot just received upfront training bond offer
Tough decision. How many hours do they expect you'll be flying? Do they have multi crew SOPs for the plane? Otherwise you might run into issues counting the hours for your ATPL.

Re: Newbie Pilot just received upfront training bond offer

Newbie Pilot just received upfront training bond offer
Hey everyone, I'd like to hear your honest opinion about something. I've been following this forum for a couple of years, and one thing that stands out is how training bonds, especially the upfront ones, are being portrayed.

Re: Convert Canadian ATPL to FAA
Has anyone got a sponsor to do the ATP-CTP since the last post? I'm soon going to finish my CPL very soon with an Avionic degree and was wondering if I should get my CPL conversion as soon as I finish my CPL here in Montreal. Since my goal is to work in the US for my career.
Thanks!
Thanks!
