The 4 landings for the basetraining cost probably 2500 euro for the 30-45 minutes of flying. A 25000 Euro bonding would be on the high side for this project with 15000 to 20000 more realistic.
And as for the best bonding, why not pay a fair pilot salary and give good conditions. Works so much better then forcing people to stay.
But everybody gets what they deserve. Flying group a bunch of desperate pilots and you probably a ****ty career. I feel sorry for you.
Iīll echo to that! The low conditions offered by Flying Group in this particular case seems to have been aimed at just attracting a relatively inexperienced Captain (a beginner). Itīs been voiced that FG have been able to attract a very experienced pilot for this position, however with the offered conditions, I doubt the new hire will be retained for long - as the aviation industry picks up. Recruitment and retention - somebody will have to pay. The owner will only realize this as he gains experience having his shiny jet. FG fouled him.
