To join NetJets Europe, you need an EASA licence. If you have a UK licence as well, that's nice but not required. If NetJets wants you to get one, they should pay... (note should). Many of the former UK lic holders who had to SOLI out to either the Netherlands or Ireland, have quietly got their UK one back paying for it ourselves.
The UK based FOs who were hired within the last year had EASA licences.
Well that looks like the journey ends before it begins with regards to Netjets. I am UK CAA licence only, Airbus and Boeing rated, yet useless for the EASA market of which I flew in for years. I was hoping the opportunity for NJ UK based operation would be my in.
