Recent Bond F.O. job in Cork, starting salary £32,000. Hardly the best payer
Only a little less than CHC FO starter pay i think! But if you want to work in Aberdeen you have to take in account the price of housing etc which many new FO's have found out later. And if your a young chap/chapess then enjoy your flying before you think about the North Sea; easier said than done if you are trying to land your first job but its a big bad world out there. It can be very demanding at times but also very boring!

But if you are prepared to take a low wage just to land a job, then 6 - 12 months later you might live to regret it when you are still trying to pay off your huge training loans.

I would rate Bristows as the best employer thou! Wish i had gone there myself.
