Happy Jack,
Ok I apologise, I've done the maths and you're right.
Working 70 hours a week in the pub I could earn £2800 per month. Thats 10 hours work a day 7 days a week. I'm not sure where I'm going to get to fit in a normal life though. Unless I decide to work 5 on 2 off in the pub. That would make it better, except that on my 5 days on I'm going to have to work 14 hours a day. I might have done it when I was 18, but I'm not going to do it now, if I had wanted to work hard i wouldn't have become a pilot.
We obviously have different expectations at the moment. You have decided to turn it down, as you say in your first post. I have decided to look at it, and if I should get an interview I can ask the questions and see what is being offered and make a decision. However the contract terms I have seen don't appear that bad (certainly not as bad as you say in your first post). To me it seems a fair renumeration for flying a small turboprop, based on the number of hours they are asking for from non-type rated pilots. It isn't jobs like this that have destroyed the industry, it is SSTRs from Easyjet, Ryan air and CTC.
