NJE lay Offs

Its difficult times for all of us in corporate aviation. My personal opinion is that NJE has done everything possible for as long as possible to avoid the blow.
I worked for NJE for 6 years and Joined the private sector 18 months ago. I am now on my second position due to the climate.

I would seriously consider the options given, there is very little out there I am part of a group all looking for work CE550/H800/GV pilots all looking for work I have been the only fortunate one of late and landed a GV position after 5 months of nothing.
Yes we would all like the cosy Jobs, benefits and salary but i am afraid its very tough in the european market its time to ride the storm.
I was fortunate enough to fall back on my previous engineering licenses GIV/GV/DA2000 until i found another flying position, but even on the engineering side its been very slow, AC not being used less hours less maintenance. FSI are due to lay off soon as well.

I would brush up on any skills you have
