Would anyone have a rough idea of the package for the RFDS jobs advertised last Friday on the AFAP jobs ?

[clear to land]

On the AFAP website you can access every sections EBA-you just need to be a member! :ok:

From 1st January 2013:

1st year pilot (at Mascot)= $95330 + Allowances (phone/internet, meal), 70% of that amount during line training which could take up to 3 months (2 months if Kingair endorsed).

7th year pilot with check and training (highest incerement) = $125,553.

As a PBI, you are also able to salary sacrifice up to $16,036 per annum, which increases buying power.

"HH" I see you guys are still on the same $$$, not too shabby tho:ok:

3months line training hey?....hmmmmm.....must be the new space shuttle version of the old Beech you guys have:-)

Say G'Day to old Bob for us will ya HH, does he do Xmas cakes for you guys up there? He is/was famous for his xmas cakes........just don't take a bite out of them within 48 hrs of a duty tho:E

Nah flying the old Beech is the easy bit, it's all the other stuff that takes a while to learn. :ok:

PS: I have heard mention of the Christmas cakes, I'm yet to see one though!;)

So what happens after year 7 HH, the RFDS don't want to pay for experience or hope you keave?

[Howard Hughes]

Previously it took 15 years to reach the highest increment, with increases every second, or sometimes third year. At the last EBA the 15 years was condensed to 7 as a way if getting people to the top increment sooner! So in effect they are paying for experience compared to the previous EBA. :ok:
