Hi,

I'd like to acquire the A340 rating. Can I get just that or do I have to do stage IV?

Blah, I don't own a 777 (Meljet maybe) and I don't particularly like it =p I'm up for it though!

Is there any other way to do it? The Meljet is horrible! I don't really feel like spending money on a payware 777 - as I said I don't particularly like the type. If I have to I guess I'll do the checkride in the Meljet, but I'd rather not - it will be a disaster.

Terry, right now, you can't jump into a stage 4 rating without going through the stage 3 rating. What I would suggest is get your stage 3 rating and then if you still want to go to the next level, then you can start planning from there
