Some prefere to have the 25% deduction and pay the difference at home.
Sounds like HiFly and EuroAtlantic, ACMI services.
To be clear: in Netjets we do NOT have this option, we HAVE TO pay the 25% non-resident tax and then deal with local tax. In Germany, for example, there is no further income tax required - only social security. If you are on a high salary, it is a good deal. If you are married with several children and a medium salary, it may not be the best deal in Germany.

It’s not Netjets to give you that option, it’s the Portuguese tax authority, and the company has to comply. You can also get the money back when filling your taxes in Portugal, without involving the company.
And no, it’s none of those companies.

PS: I heard the Germans are changing their laws and might start taxing in germany the income generated abroad in the state of the operator, if resident in germany, is that true?

I have not heard about this, no. Basically they are doing it already (see the Ryanair cases),but only if there is a treaty between Germany and the State of the operator. We already pay our social security in Germany, which is a big chunk of money, compared to the UK.

Hi guys,

looks like Kura could be opening up applications again according to their website.
Any idea on what software one could use to help for the online portion of the tests??


thanks

Its not a high requirement really, it is aimed at experienced crews, not those who have just started out

for sure, but thats what im pointing out, last year requirements were more on the "Just started out" level, and were gonna allegedly be the same in September for the second run(that never happened)

Guess they notice the need of Experienced pilots rather than low level ones

Any insider knows how important those 500 h multicrew are?
I almost have 2000h on single and multi engine turboprops but all of them as a single pilot.

​​​​I'll apply and see what happens.

500h MCC is pretty much a standard minimum requirement in the airlines, isn't it? 1500h is not a lot, I think. 1,88m maximum height is probably set now so we can put everyone on the Phenom 300, if required.

Is the Phenom 300 that much smaller in the cockpit than an XLS? It was a lifetime ago but I remember people way taller than me having no issues flying it and I am 1,90+…
Same for CJs.

Yes, pretty normal requirement.
​​But sometimes people coming from parachute, cartography, aerial patrol, flight instructors, etc.. Its quite difficult to achieve it and make the move into the CAT sector, even with thousands of hours but all of them as SP

I am not flying the Phenom myself, but my colleagues on that fleet tell that in fact the critical thing is the length of your femur (upper leg bone), or to be more precise the length measure from your knee to your hip, when sitting. If it exceeds a certain value, you might impede with the free movement of the bicycle like yoke. We have had cases of people going for their initials, but then being denied their type rating examination, because the examiner ruled them too tall (femur too long) for a safe operation.
On the XLS you definitely have more space on the flightdeck, even with longer legs, because the cockpit is a bit longer.

I know it may be a bit annoying, but they will have to go through some other companies to build their MPA hours.

Very interesting. I remember having similar issues on Senecas back in the days, but as you said I was more than fine in Excel/XLSs.
Were those guys that failed the examination sent on another fleet? Funny they had to wait till the checkride to realize there was an issue

I do not have too many details about these cases, I just know it happened. Probably the examiner did not take part of their initial training? Well, it has happened and this MIGHT be the reason for the new height restrictions.
