This is from brookfield:
"It is Brookfield Aviations policy that we will only utilize the services of a pilot who is operating in a fully compliant manner, that can be verified by brookfield, in relation to their taxation status. Your contract obliges you declare your income in Ireland and your Ltd Company is responsible for paying Pay related Social Insurance and contributions and PAYE tax to the Irish Revenue Commissioners. You will need to contact one of a number of accountancy firms listed below who can manage your taxation affairs for you. These accountancy firms are acceptable to Brookfield on the basis that they have demonstrated an understanding of your needs to Brookfield. In order to make your first payment we will require confirmation from one of these accountancy firms that you have engaged them in the required manner.
It must be clearly understood that the accountancy firms listed below have no association with Brookfield and Brookfield can accept no liability for any losses which may be occasioned to you as a result of any actions or omissions by whichever accountancy firm you choose to retain."
So we must pay tax in Ireland and account with one of 3 firms or they won't deal with us, seems pretty cut and dry to me.
The pay rates have gone down slightyly yes:
35.5/sbh for line training
55.5/sbh for <500hrs
70.5/sbh for >500hrs
78.5/sbh for >1500hrs
