I have started the type rating in December 2016 with Smartlynx Training Centre, and I definitely recommend this experience to all pilots who would like to start their career in a professional and family like structure.

Smartlynx Training Centre has a very good and professional training in terms of ground course and simulator with all the necessary support to be successful (classroom, CBT base on a computer, mock-up, simulator, and cantina), it is taught by the most experienced captain instructor in the company.

As the training is based on Airbus syllabus it gives us the most standard SOP's.

Instructors are sharing to students their experiences and their professional skills to help them to pass with success.

The most I have enjoyed: touch and go.

I suggest to all pilots to prepare yourself very well for the type rating by studying the systems. You will have to work hard during the training which is easy if your motivation is strong.
