[phontik]

Hi, I'm also going next week, on the 16th, I would appreciate any information from anyone that has already been to the simulator to know what to expect.

Thanks!

Does anybody know if it concerns a commuting contract? Because they state that you should live close to some mentioned airports like amsterdam, Nice......

[Astra SPx]

It's 6 on 4 off commutable from the nominated gateway airports.

The Austrian tax is high though, Captains starting take home in the region of 2200 Euro's and per-diem's are very low, I'm guessing you would easily be putting your own money in to live down route.

Salary is dependant on previous jet command and jet total for Captains. Obviously, F/O's are pay to fly...

[dboy]

Ok so if i understand well, the company is NOT paying you the commuting ticket???

And i suppose you also have to rent a flat in Viena?

[flyboy1818]

First Officers are paid in Globeair, just not very well. I don't believe there is a requirement to live in Vienna (The company is actually based in another part of Austria!). They pay for the tickets to/from your gateway. I don't work for the company, but I have met a few crews and they are all desperate to leave!

Is it 6-4 throughout the year. Heard some rumours that it's 7-3 in the summer with an holyday ban between May and September.

Also is there an option for an offshore contract? Would make it more interesting.

Commuting from your home with gate at nearest international airport, 6-4, flights and hotels paid while in duty, low salary, desperate for Cpt...1500 hours min. Very expensive type rating, planning until 20 Mustang in the future.

Very expensive type rating, planning until 20 Mustang in the future.

Not so expensive for the skippers, they get refunded/bonded. 1/2 of the same deal for the FO but yes, still very steep especially when compared against the salary.

Just wait. The cpt requirements went from 4000/type rated to 1500/NTR. Now just wait for the salary to go up to a comfortable €70000 and we are where we should be.

Blink is already paying £54000, which is about € 68000 with the current exchange rate

But you are still left out in the dark with an £18K SSTR regardless of the seat you are applying for, aren't you? When I enquired their "promise" was to make it very "tax-efficient" (so down to 14K, perhaps?) but that was it. GA offers you the chance to bank your whole year-salary, albeit less. Horses for courses.

Then again the 18K is about the difference in the annual salary so after year one you make 18K more in blink.

Either that or you sign with globeair and you leave for blink afterwards. Guess that's also why Globeair is looking for pilots and Blink isn't.

Hi guys! What has been your first contact with GlobeAir?
I got an e-mail "Your profile is being viewed by the hiring team".

Is it positive or "standard" email?

Thank you and good luck!

[flaps35]

Hi Guys,


Fieldins when did you applied?
I hav applied 2 months ago still nothing heard.


Greetings

[Fieldins]

Hi Flaps35 I applied 3 months ago!

[Son of a Beech]

It's a start

[figatelix]

Hi guys,

Received this morning the mail saying that my profil had been viewed and I am on the "INTERVIEW" on top.


Haven't received any other info though.

I applied a month ago.
Approx 1500h total.

Not a huge fan of Self funded TR but curious about their interview process.
We'll see down the road.

Cheers guys.

that means you have their requirements for interview. doesn´t necessarily mean you will have an interview with them.

[Fieldins]

Hi!
How many time between the review mail and the interview email?
