Hi Everyone
Can anyone out there let me know what the requirements are at FlyBe for a direct entry command? I believe they are recruiting, but I can't find any info on their web site. Also is the salary on www.ppjn.com correct? Any info would be much appreciated.
Thanks again.
Eff Oh. :ok:

Thanks Artificial Horizon.
Exactly what I was looking for. Cheers. :D
The advert should also state :
# Applicant must be willing to work ridiculous hours, with a large number of 6on 2off roster patterns
#Applicant must be willing to be continually night-stopped
#Applicant must also relinquish all hold on a social life and expect to have far too many roster-changes to be able to plan any kind of life outside of work
:p
Lol well said, that pretty much sums it up!

Would they be interested in a 52-year old SFO who has 4400 total, 3500 on A320/321, and A330.? All right-seat.
Started late, cut teeth on turboprops, night freight, now comfy in rt. seat of A330, but looking for a local command. Good worker, own teeth, hair, etc.
Any thoughts guys? The 5th Sanford in 6 weeks is wearing a bit thin!

presumably if a new capt is based in bhd, gla, or edi, they won't be doing a great deal of nightstops as that's where the other capts nightstop anyway. or so i've heard
I would say that's a reasonable assessment... although who knows it could all change in few weeks/months/years!
:p
