Hi There
Is there anyone out there working for Niki?
I am interested in a DE Command on the A320 but have heard the money is pretty bad. Can someone that knows for sure, please elaborate on the T's and C's. TAKE HOME pay. Rostering. Overnights. Unpaid leave? General morale in the company? Do you work for NIKI or a contracting company.
Any news would be good. Thanks.

Money seems to be that bad, they can´t even afford a computer!

g109, can you elaborate. I have heard indirectly for a long time that money imparticular is not good. In fact haven't heard anything great at all but nobody has hard facts on what it is that is so bad.
Hard to even get a reply to this thread. So anyone out there, the stage is yours....

Years ago my old boss was at an F1 function and talking to mr L. Seems he loves flying but doesn't like pilots!! I think this may be a problem to anyone who flies his aircraft.

LAUDA?
„Heute könnte ein Affe ein Formel-1-Auto steuern. Bei diesem Ding ist das nicht anders. Du machst fast nichts mehr selber.“
Today even a monkey can drive a F1 car. With this thing (A320) it's not different. You almost do nothing by your own.

Have fun....

Reminds me of the old joke with the Englishman Scotsman and Irishman going for an interview with "the rat". The last Q was " do you notice anything unusual about my appearance? "
John and Jock having felt that commenting on the lack of ears hadn't gone down too well warned Paddy to be a little bit more tactful in his reply.
When asked the Q Paddy duly responded that no, he didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. At this point the mood lightened and Niki said, " well Paddy that all seems to be fine then, so just to conclude is there anything you would like to ask me "
Mulling it over for a few seconds Paddy decided to venture
" well yes , there is one ting bothering me Mr Lauda. . . . tell me, how the **** do you keep your sunglasses on ? "

They are not recruiting except maybe for EMB190/170 fleet coming soon - cheaper to run than A320 !

Do they base all of their pilots in Vienna, or are some based in Salzburg as well? Anyone know the rosters? Cheers.
