Aero B737-500

Gather from my aero colleagues, aerocontractors first B737-500 aquisition out of seven is about to touch down in Lagos any moment from now!

Why B737-500 models Aero, whats the whole idea any Aero insider care to enlighten us on this decision to buy -500 series, bizarre guys.

Still considering their offer to join up, hopefully their salary scale for new First officers will improve, compared to the other airlines its quite a sad tale especially coming from Aero.

Best of luck to y´all.

you are referring to second officer positions Ogechi.
you better take the job, alot of pilots are on the street in Lagos with no Jobs and it is almost the same story in every airline if you are starting as a fresher.

Ogechi, did you read your post, you went into the salary bash first.

On the B737-500 do you have a better suggestion from your lofty heights. What are the load factors, what is the operating cost, what is the acquisition cost, what are the expansion plans? All questions that must be answered.

As for salary scales, aero is one of the best. Proper schedules for crew, no "OVERTIME" proper health care, a leave plan to die for, but as usual,some just think about the benji's.

And you must know the saying,"it's your choice"
