From the research I have done online sometimes this says that it is seasonal- what does that mean? Are there pilots based there during this time and then based elsewhere the rest of the year? Or is the Belfast base just covered on a roster from other bases?
I have also read in a number of different places that pilots are required to live 60 minutes away from their base? Can anyone confirm if this is the case also?
The Belfast base being seasonal means it is summer only, and usally consists of aircraft and crew brought in on lease - from Canada in recent years
