Bond are constantly looking for the right pilots, ex mil or not. They have high standards, trust me on that. If you are good enough and have the right attitude, you will be joining a great company. They expect 100% from you and I recently discovered that they will back you 100% in times of trouble.
Why can't ANY pilot go part time??? This is 2014, not 1914 for gods sake. If I line checked any staff member, they would either pass or fail using my single scale of requirements. Their background would not matter. If William gets an AA job, he will do it on merit. If he uses his position to get the 'interview'..... So what??? I got a mate to put my CV in, hundreds of other pilots have done the same. Good luck to him, I am told he is a capable, charming young man.
