Question How is it to work for Cargolux?

Hi,

I'm considering sending my CV to cargolux as I heard they will hire soon. But I have some questions:
-what the roster looks like?
-first salary F/O?
-minimum requirements to work for them?
-time to command?

You can answer here or private message,

Thank's

CV to Cargolux! Now that's funny!

Speaking as a former "outport" LoCo Bloko, I'd have to say it's a good company to work for. Most of the crews are very pleasant & relaxed. There are some questionable "things" that come out of LUX, but that's the same with any company. I'd certainly recommend working for them. Good luck.

I know a guy at CV MEL that worked for Alitalia cargo in India. Worked on the Combi's & freighters I think. PM me if you'd like to contact him.

Cheers

@ cressidom
AirBridge is the new cargo arm of Volga Dnepr - just flying now with "western equipment"... Sorry no details on-hand regarding contacts etc, maybe CR2 can add to that.
Cheers
