Any FlyBe FO's here that can answer my questions?
How do you find the operational environment with regards to SOP adherence and so on? Paperless cockpit?
I've got about 1200 hours TT of which about 800 are on a JAR 25 TP. How
long will my time to command be (all other JAR-FCL requirements fulfilled).
Schedulingwise, is there an economic compensation for changes in the roster or are they able to move it about as they please? How about overtime compensation and working on offdays? What will a typical monthly salary after tax look like (I ask after tax because I don't know the UK income tax, I'm Swedish). What are the additional allowances (overnight payments, sector pay, weekend compensation and so on)?
How big is the bond, that is, how much is the max amount that one can be required to pay incase one decides to leave before the 3 year bond is over?
What's the chance of getting the Exeter or channel island base's? Is it part of the initial contract or is it a lottery once you get in?
Are there any other benefits involved, health plan with free gymcard or similar goodies? Staff travel with FlyBe and/or allied airlines?
License and medical fee's paid?
Sectors per day? How early are the earlies and how late are the lates? How long (block time) are the sectors in average?
Sorry if the questions seem stupid. I have a decent job for the time being. It pays well but this is mostly due to schedueling problems and excessive compensations for company f-ups. Also the operational environment is more cowboy than professional and I'm looking for a standardised cockpit environment that makes good use of functioning SOP... Basically everything you'd expect to find in the TP-swamp.
Thanks on forehand/ LnS
