I'm aware we are talking Irish taxation.
I'm also aware the Irish taxman is under pressure. Possibly from both sides of this particular fence.
Alex - I was thinking of IR35 and paying yourself a dividend and paying employer NI but still saving overall over PAYE.
I'm no tax expert but every other airline seems to have fairly plain vanilla tax arrangements for pilots. What Brookfield boys do with their limited choice of accountants and what deals are done with the taxman in that scrupulously uncorrupt country are way beyond my understanding.
Its just another aspect which generates the distaste that so many pilots feel.
