SO / FO choice
Hello guys.
If you had the choice of starting as SO on COS99 and starting as FO (european base) on COS08, which one would be the best deal, comparing only salary (global package) and days off?
I know starting salary as FO is higher, but you won't get any housing allowance. (and what after onshoring?)
SO usually get a lot of days off, to spend with wife and kids, right?
What about DEFO? Heard you would require to fly both freighter and PAX, so what would be the roster like?
I wouldn't mind flying as SO, just want to get the best deal.
Thanks
