Let me help you out of the illusion. Holland exel is the remains of Air Holand after being bought up from bankruptcy. Has now become part of the Exel group that has various branches Aruba Exel, KLM exel, Alsace Exel, Grandaexel No clear plan however of what direction they want to go in (ie plans changed, cancled, delayed) seem to come up with new permutations every month.
http://www.exelaviationgroup.com/?lang=en It is run by the illustrious IMCA group of Erik De Vlieger. Who has the tendency to let a company bust then pick off the remains and offer the personnel 'take it or leave it' appalling contracts. You can also ask our French friends at the now ex-Air Liberte how they feel about him.
If your still interested her are some figures. (example Alsace Exel):
First off you have to pay 35,000 Euro for a type rating (ATR/EMB 145) or 45,000 Euro (B767 Air Holland) you do get 15,000 Euro back after 3 years.
Salary while training: 1414 Euro p/m
Starting salary as F/O: 1644 Euro p/m increasing to max 1726 Euro p/m after 3 years.
23 vacation days + lots of restrictions
Further contract doesn’t fall under the Exel aviation Group but under the arm you started with e.g Aruba exel, Alsace exel so if things don’t work out can just let go bankrupt and cut arm off.
Based ? Can't give you a guarantee as they say things are changing so fast so could base you for 6 months in Strasbourg then if that doesn’t work move you to Cuneo or maybe back to Maastricht (relocation all at your own costs of course).
