IŽm just about to sign for the Brookfield contract with Ryanair but I am a bit worried because IŽll be leaving my job and I donŽt know how this contract set up is going to work.
IŽve been told that IŽll be flying 50% out of my base on a 5in 3off roster and away on a 5in 5off.
Also that I pretty much have a guaranteed 900 hours flying a year.
Quite frankly the money is not that good at all and the terms are not the best but IŽll be happy for the time being if I can just expect that.
Can any one please tell me what should expect as a contractor. How many hours are you flying at the moment? And the extra 20 an hour when away from your base is enough to pay for accomodation, transport, etc.
I think with those conditions they will struggle to find many more pilots in the very near future.
