Finally some answers from people in the know who don't have to take another opportunity to slag everything off - although the wire brush comment was brilliant!!!!!
From what I've heard......:
No pension?
5/3 often becomes 4/4
Staff travel is cheapish but stand-by
Pay your own medical, hotac for recurrent sim, food/drink, loss of license, travel in general? (eg to sim), uniform etc etc
If you join with the magic 3000 (decent) hrs how long to command - 6 months?????
And what I'd really like to know - pay abroad. Capt pay abroad = FO pay UK????? Anything you hear about tax free salaries in Europe imho steer well clear of.........
Ciao tutti........
