Hi all.
I'm early 20's, currently working in ground ops which I've been doing for approx 2 years. I'm hoping to eventually make it into flying and am now applying to hopefully at least get an interview for summer 03. Just wondered if anyone can give me any advice or answer any of my questions?
Really, most important to me is wondering what the likelihood of being kept on permanently at somewhere like MYT, BY etc would be if I was lucky enough to get in for a temp summer contract? In my current (permanent) job im earning about £15500, does anyone know what sort of money (I presume itll be less) I could expect at, say one of the above?
My ideal would be for say, an EMA/LBA/MAN base, anyone know how hard it is to get in to one of those, how many staff they take on etc.. and how far you have to live from the airport. i presume itd be shorthaul on 320 or 757 at the above airports too... anyone know what the shifts/hours/crews are like...
Really, any info would be much appre. Do apologise for my ignorance/questions but I’m just trying to learn as much as poss before I move forward with applications
