Guys , u can stop bashing each other. We would like to get more pertinent info on the work at GF!
So slowjet , can you tell us any thing about GF that might help all our fellow pilots?
Guess not!

OKAY , here is some info about the bond! Since GF is getting 20 new A320's as per the posts by sincere GF pilots , there should be no bond as Airbus offers free type ratings when you buy airplanes from them. Depending on the airline, 4 pilot type ratings are free. sometimes 2 or 6.

So, as mentioned earlier by MR. DESERTHAWK and MR. SSSAND, the bond is only to keep the pilots from leaving next door.
I believe many left to QATAR earlier and there are many more still leaving.
GF doesn't care about EMB and C series as there are not many choices of airlines to go to with that type rating. nor there will be ever!
