ok ihav2fly been on a trip just saw your reply how about you work for a company that makes people pay for their interviews etc and then their type rating! now you will say market forces etc but come on. what about when you convert from 200 to 800 and you have to sign a non reducing 8k bond oh yes and we can move you to any base we like with 7 days notice! they say if you do over x hours a day its £185 sector pay or x hours its £135 but they base it on the unrealistic shedule not what it actualy takes again you will say thats still alot of money but they just turn it to their advantage. how about 15 pilots having done 1100hrs in 11 months not an issue now but it was then. one mate put in for leave told not for next 6 months then gets allocated some he doesnt want. crew food is good i hear. i have never said that fr was a bad company but only said you get treated badly and that is some employees opinion. in the moon this weekend i have been chatting with some of your collegues about our posts and they all said they became pilots to travel and nightstop see the world etc and once they have their commands and a few hours will apply to the majors. so once again qatar would be their choice!
