Oh no, another.................
Please read all of the description before placing a bid!
Coming up for auction, a brand new pilot (The seller. Hereafter mentioned as “pilot”) with JAA CPL, ATPL-theory. In addition to this, the pilot will most probably gain the ME/IR by the end of April/beginning of May 2009 (frozen ATPL). It doesn’t end there, by the mid of July, he’ll also have gained experience in the world of MCC at Oxford Aviation Academy at Arlanda, Stockholm Sweden.
In a world, and at a time, where drastic financial cuts are everyday news, the people and companies living in it need to use drastic methods in order to get by.
This pilot has a perfect breeding record, good health and has documented good characteristics for the job to be done. He’s not shy or aggressive to other pilots, but get along very well in various social situations.
He’s still a young fellow. Inexperienced, yes, but still very eager to perform well and to develop his skills further. Somehow he managed to acquire relatively excellent skills with the English language in addition to his mother tongue. He has also gained basic knowledge of the German language. With the right leader and firm tutoring he’ll excel at your discretion!
As a buyer, you sign up for taking care of the necessary administration that needs to be done (be careful to check with your national customs if you’re allowed to import this kind of livestock without prior permission!) and agree to let him fly for you and/or your company. You also see to that the certificates are valid in your area of operations. If not so, and you’re still interested in buying this right, you must inform the seller before you place a bid. The pilot is open for any suggestions worldwide. (Preferably warm, sunny and where the palms grow, in Sweden it’s quite the opposite).
You also agree to pay him a salary, enough for living expenses and some exercise at the local gym. If not able to pay him a salary (tough climate in the business of air operations) you at least agree to accommodate him and give him food and many hours of flying with your aircraft(s). When it comes to a type rating, he’s perfectly open to pay for it himself. In return it would be nice if you let him fly afterwards.
Please, feel free to email me any questions! I’d gladly send you an updated CV.

Well, he's made it to PPRUNE at least and willing to pay for his type rating!
Where do they get their money from?
He won't be the last. I do sympathise, it's a shocking time to come out of training, but it is a bad time whatever you have majored in, think of all those students coming out of Uni applying for a handful of jobs......Bad, bad times!
Still, I can't advocate this type of self marketing, it (IMHO) is cheap and degrading, let alone the damage (potential) it could inflict on T&C's for future crews.
