Pick me Flybe!
Only staff who have been there for some time get offered the £1000/month deal as they become 'Senior FI's'. Unless you are a senior FI with Cabair you will get £20/hr for instructional flights and that's it. The ferry flights are quite common and indeed you get £10/hr for those and any groundschool.

What they don't tell you when you start is that you work a month in lieu for the first month without any pay. All very well if you're ****ting money but not so good if you've moved down to the smoke, living in digs and on a hand to mouth basis.

I would seriously consider whether you wish to get bonded for 2 years regardless of what they offer to pay for. expedite08 reckons you get the IR, MCC and JOC thrown in too but I think he's seriously confused with another offer.

Best advice (other than my own ) is to go down there and see them - then you will see the operation and may even meet Mr.Edwards.
