767/300er, you'll require both of those mate. However unless you're unemployed at the moment I'd think carefully. Like Scroggs I've been there 6 years, now possibly another 2/3 before a crack at a command course, maybe even longer as the current pay offer is an attempt to get us to become a 850 hr outfit.
the current management plan is to not increase the pilot establishment beyond what is strictly necessary.
Now, look at those pay numbers too. To live in the south east of england where we're based approx £1000 or more will be required a month to enter the property market. That plus a NEED to put in the max into our laughable pension scheme doesn't leave you much in the land of expensive petrol and the new £3 pound pint.
As for the girls, ah those were the days, but not sadly as much these days.
I gues that there are plenty of other outfits that would take a guy with your exp. and pay you better. However I'll gladly get a round in lagos if you come.
good luck
