[sets]

For anyone interested there are some flight test jobs posted by Pilatus on their company website. I append the link at the bottom of this posting. Anyone out there had any experience working with them ?

Used to be very difficult to get a visa to work there. The only Brit I ever knew who went to work for them was married to a Swiss.

From a recent meeting with Brand H, I beleive the Avionics FTE will be testing an APEX system on the PC-12.

Pilatus certainly have a large number of Brits working for them.

They seem to prefer ex military test pilots who can also speak to engineers and write technical reports in german.

Worked in Switzerland (in Basel) for 2 years absolutely no problem with work permit.

I know of at leats three Brit engineers working, or who have worked at Pilatus as FTEs.

and I studied Eng in London and moved straight to Switzerland, no problems with work permit. I would say go for it if you want to work for Pilatus - the company applies for the work permit on your behalf, anyway.
Only problem is how close Stans is to the slopes at Engelberg.... could damage your ability to show up to work on time ;) Just kidding.
