….FAA or EASA. Leaving BIG the middle of December, return 10.01.

PM please with daily rate.

Can possibly either come back 26-31, or head down to Goa if interested in a break.

Sir

Current and qualified on cl-604. How does $1250 per day plus expenses sound. Available immediately.

If 604 FO's are getting $1250/day PLUS expenses, I have some serious wage negotiations to attend to...
I guess he did start with "Sir"...
Someone feel free to correct/update me with the current ways of the world!

Feel me now stupid.
I just wrote to the boss and demanded a 100K pay rise!

[GlenQuagmire]

I'm guessing that you asking your boss for a 100k pay rise means you are comparing your full time wage with his freelance rate. The freelance market is weak and making a living is very hard at the moment. Paying for a renewal is $20k. It's Christmas and New Year working. Doesn't seem that unreasonable for a bloke that knows his stuff and is available. Does it?

[josephfeatherweight]

It was of course, TIC. Yes, I'm aware of the differences between full time and freelance.
What I think is reasonable and what the actual going rate is for a 604 FO are two different things, but I don't disagree with you!
