I don't think it's unreasonable to request the type rating...it just doesn't make a lot of sense to me how they go about it. They'll accept a type rating with no practical experience, but reject practical experience without the type.
I suppose the cynic in me is skeptical about a good ole boy network making money off of potential applicants. Don't a majority of SWA pilots get hired through certain type rating courses/schools? |
The last 3 guys I know going to SWA got internal recommendations. They went to 2 different courses. Good 'ole boys club? No comment.
