lhrloader, as wideloader points out 23k + 500 perdium makes a take of 1800 approx. Hong Kong,Dubai,US of A and some Mil and F1 contracts on B747s make this a good job to go for if you want to loadmaster. Its more take home than being a CAA Cargo Loading Inspector, which is perverse.
Icemel, you will get a call from Swanner if he wants to interview you, thats why you need a Channex connection. We all know who is good in the commercial air loadmaster world and who isn't. Chock takes great pleasure out of hiring Channex guys and leaving EXS looking for more guys to train for him.
As for Channex, yeah they still have loadies, but only on the B737 Newspaper and the odd ad -hoc, 1 is in LBA which is as much use as a chocolate fireguard and 2 are in STN, oh and not forgetting the Scudsmiester who is a legend in his own underpants!!
Currently training up a new loadie, but will he stay or will he go!!
