I don’t know about the costs in France but in the UK you’d be looking at 30-35,000 Euros for a 320 or 777 rating at your own expense. I do know that it is cheaper to do training in the UK compared to Germany as in the UK if you already have 1000 hours on medium/heavy jets and the TRTO (type rating training organisation) holds the relevant approval you can be exempt from the base training requirements (this is referred to as Zero Flight Time). Base training is where an instructor and typically four new pilots to type take an aircraft somewhere convenient and typically do 6 touch and go’s each. My airline is also a zero flight time TRTO which saves 26,000 Euros each time base training is avoided!
