Boeing 737 Type Rating

“If it’s not Boeing, I ain’t going”- whether you are a Boeing fanboy or not, you probably have seen this tag attached to the flight bags of several Airline pilots who just love flying their 737s. And if you are a CPL holder, fresh out of the flight school and also a Boeing fanatic, well congratulations. There's no better time to get type rated on the B737, for getting a step ahead, in your journey to become an Airline pilot and finally fly the machine of your dream. The B737 is one of the oldest and most popular narrow-bodied commercial airliner in the world, giving tough competition to its rival A320, in terms of sales. Currently, there is a total of 550 unfulfilled orders for this particular family of aircraft all over the world. While in India, there are currently four major airlines operating a total of 100 B737 family aircraft, recently two major airlines placed a huge order of 72 and 100- B737s, valued at 9 billion dollars and 12 billion dollars respectively, to start their operations within the country, in the coming years. With India being projected as the world’s largest civil aviation market by 2030 and with such a huge order underway, getting a B737 type rating should be the absolute choice for moving ahead in your career, after receiving your Commercial Pilot License.
