Salary paid in NOK, converted to EUR at exchange rate on pay-day. 3 incomes:- basic salary of around €44,000 pa. Sector pay of around €30 per block hour. Housing allowance of around €600 pm. Contract governed under Estonian law, taxes to be paid in Estonia. Sick for more than 2 days in the year, they stop your basic salary. Sick for more than 5 days, they can fire you. Yes, that's what is written in the contract.

Also, pay for medical, loss of licence, etc.

A real Union breaker, if you ask me. I'm sure DY mainline is nothing like the above. Also, you would have to ask, why do DY feel they have to put their Finnish based pilots on an Estonian contract, paid in NOK/EUR and all for just 12 months. Race to the bottom anyone??

SlowandSilly, I still haven't forgot about you. I'll write to you next week. Cheers.
