So yeah, air national is the mountain air of the turboprops. Pay for stuff, dont get paid much and have a bond.(take from that what you want)

Eagle, you get more money, dont have to pay, superannuation, staff travel, quick command, proper training and yes you do have a bond but the industry has slowed such that it shouldnt be an isssue. Has that green tail and that swirly thing on it to...

It just depends whether you want to work for monkeys or not. Also depends where the vacancys are at the time.
Starting f/o at Eagle under the new contract is around 41 k plus the additional allowances.
Yeah I know it's 38 but when you add the 2 for driving to work and the uniform upkeep and the shoe allowance and the phone allowance, you get to over 40 but closer to 41 then add the meal breaks and overnights and callouts- if you get any. Normally a f/oin the first year wil make around 7k in additional allowances.

Make you own decisions. That is not including the mbf fund and loss of liscense if you sign up to it. Subsidised medical insurance and life insurance...

Sounds like a sweet deal for those newbes that have just left ctc- still not really as much as they are worth tho eh ??


Please dont come to Eagle if you are a knob as there are enough of them here at the moment.
