Well as a resident/inmate here for the last 8 months I can say it isn't all sunshine and lollypops but it is bloody good.
Stacks of work, especially for Phase 1 and not a sniff of flying for the first 20 weeks but it is worth it once you get past that phase. Yeep the flying is good and the fleet couldnīt be better kept. ATC is hmm mostly fine except when you get a trainee in the tower. ****e then you have the blind leading the blind. Luckily there is always a senior ATCer watching over the proceedings but it definitely increases the workload just when you donīt want it.
So far it has lived up to my expectations no mistake. Just don't think the place is a holiday camp cause it ainīt. It is very much a case of work bloody hard and play hard when you get the chance.
PS: the food gets bloody boring after a week or two...
