Globally Challenged,

New to freelancing but I'll try to answer your questions,

1. Pitfalls. You are responsible for your own recurrents/LPC's; so you could be out of pocket by a huge amount every year. There are deals to be had though if you enquire properly and are flexible. Secondly, you may find that if you offer your services to the company where you currently fly, that your services will be utilised less as you are costing the company more!

2. Don't know for that fleet. But circa £400/day as a guess.

3. Hotel, positioning and per diem paid.

4. Must do the OPC in the sim and line training.
