Those of us who applied for MAN have probably now all received the letter explaining that there will be no initial courses for MAN this summer with Thomsonfly, with the option to remain in the holding pool for 2007 season...

Pool must be pretty full guys... anyone got any arm-bands to lend out... we could be here for a while...

Hi guys

Initial courses at LGW are up and running, cse 3 just finished and going on-line. Courses in newcastle starting next month.
fleet of 737's arriving by the day with a great deal of conversion work taking place.
There is a huge training workload at the moment, shortage of trainers and lots of sales conferences next month for existing crew as a new rostering system is being launched.
hang on in there!

tflyhostie

thanks for that info, gives me a little glimmer of hope.

Shortage of trainers????????????

Theres loads of new ones! Or is it because the ones that are used for everything are too busy to do anything else?

jannie

i applied for luton and b'ham as neither are too far from me.

fight_for_life you can share my arm bands, ive done my 5m so only need one while i practice my lengths!

did anyone see the piece in the sun today about the captin who is haunting his old plane!!

Must be all that sales training


To all of you joining, look forward to meeting you and working with you. PS We don't bite on t'other side of the door.

Hello - I'm recently been offered a position with Thomson Fly out of East Midlands. My only major concern is the salary as I would be taking a cut from what I currently earn - what is a realistic take home monthly salary for a new starter out of this base? Any other useful information or advice anyone can offer would be appreciated.

When do you start your training course for EMA?
