So anyone qualified beyond PPL level is excluded. Someone with first time passes cannot apply. An MPL & 330 rating for £110,000
Good luck to all that apply but this is just further proof that the job of first officer has become just a matter of putting anyone in the seat whilst creating an extra income stream.
To allow a guy from CTC to go around talking about pilot shortages on BBC is also not on. This was nothing short of advertising. If there were a pilot shortage then all virgin has to do is open up recruitment offering a bonded A330 rating and they would be inundated with applications from experienced FO's.
Good luck with you MPL pilot up front when the s@#t hits the fan and he is left to sort it. Lets hope the skipper has some good handling experience.
