No exodus or anything but this sounds promising for anyone wanting to fly a jet WITH lifestyle to boot.

Why the obsession still with multi PIC?

Sounds like something a Caravan King would say…

Toxic incompetent management, poorly maintained aircraft, accelerating mass exodus of pilots, punitive training department run by carrot in ass military rejects etc etc. Where's the apply button?

Any 'lifestyle' was removed with the new agreement that Qantas pushed through by threatening current pilots with their jobs.

13 RDO's in a calendar month with Virgin is a much better lifestyle option in my opinion.

Yes, we will soon find out who is an employer of choice for pilots.

HR clearly haven’t woken from their insipid slumber. Jobs aplenty o/s, with a simple phone interview. None of the entry exams, sim “check” b.s, and a welcome mat to boot. The pain is just beginning

Would having pilots fly the aeroplanes be considered a strategic imperative?

NJS has a long history of operating Regional Jets. Remember NJS was flying Qantas passengers domestically before Qantas had a domestic airline. This is not a GA with Jets company like Network or Alliance.

My understanding is Qantas has slowly destroyed and crushed the happiness of the Tech Crew with multiple Base closures the past few years (the lifestyle bases).

Other then Tasmanian locals everyone is too scared to move to Hobart due to the fear of it closing and Melbourne was full of Cairns and Perth people who hate/hated the place. This is why they are short there and will be for some time.

Will be interesting to see how they will crew the A220 - I suspect they will need to offer retention bonuses soon or they’ll have a bunch of ex Rex cadets running the show.

If they ever take delivery and assuming they go to NJS. Two big IFs.

Judging by this job advert, I think there's a good chance the A220 will be coming.

I would've thought the job of manager of a brand new shiny aeroplane would usually be filled by eager ones inside the airline, but here they're having to advertise for someone externally? Also can't help but notice the large amount of ramp and freight jobs available in the left hand column.....

I do have a lot of Caravan time but also some king Air PIC and a bunch of jet FO time but still not eligible to apply.

Australia the land unrealistic management.

And the likes of Alliance etc are complaining that they’re losing a good base of applicants to the USA.

Australian aviation really needs to figure out that it didn’t invent aviation.

Oh well head up North (don’t tell them about your US Jet time) start back on the van scenics for a bit and soon enough you’ll be on the Baron and will have enough multi time to apply to NJS.

You’ll find like many Jet Operators in Aus they require 500 multi command to be a Captain. Insurance/Company/AOC/Watever requirement.

This is why I am never coming back. They can keep the numbers they make up from thin air. They will be asking for Uni degrees next.

Well that’s one less competitor for the position!
500 hrs multi PIC is not that much to ask for. It also helps to reduce the number of applicants.
