The problem with Aberdeen is mostly the management.

But you earn 737 money.
4 years with the company 2500hrs = £40.000
Fresh comand £60.000

Career advancement is pot luck.

Our lot is strapped for pilot's, only they themselves do not appear to know it.

If you are a contract pilot on the medium fleet you can make a killing at £305 per day co-pilot £325 comander.
We have a whole gaggle of them.

In my base only 10% of the pilot actually look forward to going flying the rest would prefer to stay at home and receive the pay in the post.

Aberdeen is probably the same.

Helicopter pilots generally fly these marvelous maschines because they love them and only because they love them.

This is just me sitting on the fence.

Life is to b**dy short!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
