I was offered a potential contract operating for Alliance. The terms were atrocious and politely turned it down. Don’t worry guys, most Brits are not interested. They will struggle with foreigners.

Really ?
And could you suggest who else would have had the capability to do the tasks. |

The guys operating the ex-Jetgo EMB145’s from Essendon ( can’t remember the operator’s name) might have been able to.

Do these EASA ATPL holders have to complete all the CASA ATPL syllabus and then an ATPL flight test? Seems only fair as that’s the requirement going the other way.
|
They may not hold EASA licences since brexit. But either way, I don’t think you can fly VH aircraft here without a CASA licence.
If those contractors have to pay the FBT on the accomodation they will be working for $4000/month net. So, one school fee and 120 instant noodles. |
It’s begun
I hear EastCoast Fokker pilots are all going to call in sick. Its either next week, or the one after bloody genius move if it happens.
Tally Ho |
But either way, I don’t think you can fly VH aircraft here without a CASA licence. |
Sick days ? I suspect a mass exodus will begin to unfold all thanks to Nige’s email making its way into the public domain.

So is “Nigel’s email” the one from the recruitment agency offering positions with Alliance or an internal Alliance email that has “ made its way in to the public domain” but not here on PPRUNE?
The Townsville Refueller tells me that employment of the recruitment agency has been denied. |
What’s the latest with AeroProfessional in the Uk sending guys to Alliance? Is this still going ahead or have the management and Union prevented this?
|
So is the departure of the long term HR manager a result of the lack of pilots? mmmmmmm

For what purpose? It was certainly an explored option.
Maybe they should stop looking for bigger sticks and find other ways to stem the tide of resignations. |
So word from the refueler this morning is that the Alliance CEO has "resigned".

When managers move between companies it is called head hunting when pilots move it is poaching. Odd that. |
‘Non monetary incentives’. Like what, Friday pizza lunches?
|
That still costs money.
I’m gonna guess more “atta boy!”’s coming their way |
Poaching pilots. FFS. I hope they lose everybody, and their former pilots all go on to better things. As for non monetary? Money talks, BS walks.
|
I presume they aren't allowed to give anything monetary based due to qantas "wage policy"
|
I reckon the lack of willingness to give monetary incentives well and truly pre dates any direction from QF.

G’day TT, Thats an interesting point given the current transition; who’s pulling the levers ? I hope the rumoured EFA 2% is not a sign of things to come . . . Atlas will be happy, and Asia as a whole is yet to fire back up. Oz2 |

The day of reckoning is coming for Australian aviation. The day the tide goes out. The day its ridiculous 'standards' are seen for what they are. The day that every Australian pilot sitting in the right seat of a Saab/Dash8/Bras that has been told they should be thankful that they get to sit in the right seat for 8 years, the day they realise they could be flying a B747/777 without having to sit an interview with 3 Austronaughts, a psychologist and 2 HR experts while having their answers assessed by mensa HAS COME.
Most businesses employing people on that level of salary would be expected to conduct a reasonable level of due diligence. |
Whilst due diligence is certainly required, I think the point is often the 'intellectual' interviewers do not understand aviation.
But maybe its a myth, no sarcasm, because at the end of the day most capable pilots I know have good jobs. Personally Cathay passed me over (dodged a bullet there) for not knowing what the name of some obscure aircraft in a museum's name was, but I worked for other Asian airlines without issue and also passed Jetstar and QF assessment. (edit for the dodged bullet comment) |
