Just apply directly to the Norwegian 787 position in Bangkok if you meet the minimums, stay 3 years, and then get a 777 or another 787 job somewhere else...
That's the whole fu***ing problem. In the meantime there'll be no more "good airlines" to go to...
That is the reasoning of Norwegians CEO, Bjorn Kjos also; since other LCC use contract pilots, we have to do it to in order to be competitive.
The only way this sh** will stop is IF
WE SAY STOP!!! But that does'nt seem to happen
I've heard some pilots, especially RYR/esy folks from scandinavia; I'll just take some ****ty contract to get enough hours to go home to Norway and work for Norwegian. In the meantime DY has, due to the competition from ryr/esy etc, also started using contract pilots with even worse T&C. So now they turn DY down, because they can't afford it. That's gotta be a kick in the ba**s, but who's to blame?!?
