Quick bit of info from a current TNT bod would be much appreciated. Could someone please pm me the basic salary for a TNT S/O (cruise relief pilot) on the 744 fleet. Many many thanks.:ok:

As far as the info on the website TNT does not have S/O on the 74. Can anyone confirm?

I received an offer for an interview recently. I thought there were redundant/furloughed pilots at TNT? I guess not?!?!

It seems they maybe looking for people again. I also was sent an invitation.

Is working for TNT (long haul ) a good job....? Honest opinions will be greatly appreciated....

thanks,

jones:ok:

hello,

is the invitation for long haul or medium haul? And are you type rated on TNT aircraft for the moment. Its good stable company to work for and i never heard of people wo got made redundant, contractors mabey.

grtz from belgium

I have also received the invitation for long haul but it doesn't mention date or location.
I am type rated in 744 but not in my JAR license.

I have reapplied that I am interested in working for TNT and still waiting for response.

Actually, there is ONE S/O in TNT airways.

Funny to see how many times you see the term "Cruise Relief Co-Pilot" in the manuals/flight enveloppes etc... for only one guy!

They thought it was a good idea, then dropped it.

They dropped it for good reason!

767's
 

Loulou,

I have news about 767's. TNT won´t add, in short to medium term to any airplane to TAY/PNR fleet, so maybe your unions got an agreement for nothing. At least for the moment.

Do you have any other info about this? My info comes from TNT staff.

Regards.

TNT are adding 11 B737-400 Freighters to the fleet.
Basically to replace the B737-300's but if market demands they will keep a number of 300's going...

First two 400's are due in December 2010.

767's that TNT were going to add were in such a sorry state that the Belgian CAA did not accept them.

TNT soon in CKG ?
 

anybody in the know about orange coloured aircraft soon to operate between CKG nd LGG ?

Doesn't say anywhere where that additional plane is coming from, probably would have said so if new. Is one of the two planes on loan to Emirates back?

As I said in the other topic (that we could merge I guess)

they are no new 744, but they will use the 2 emirates painted tnt owned 744 (OO-THC, OO-THD)
(They were flying to Liège quite often already)

F/O salary, needs and minimum requirements
 

Hello Gents,

Any info about the msg title?

I'd appreciate info as detailed as possible. Website does not include 744 minimums, nor 737 payscale.

Please P.M.

Thanks in advance

somebody know if they will be recruiting? (entry on the BAE?)

Here's the good news :)


Dear Colleagues,

Ever since we launched our longhaul activities we have been successful in positioning ourselves on the Asian market and managed to grab the growth opportunities of this buoyant market. The introduction and operation of the B747ERF was a key move and a determining element to this success as well as our strategy with Emirates Airlines.

You are probably aware that we are now operating 3 dedicated B744ERF’s between LGG and Asia and as of September we will add a 4th aircraft through the Wet Lease-in of a B744F.

During the last 2 years we have followed closely the development of the B747-8F which we believed would be our expansion aircraft. However, it is now clear that the aircraft will not meet the performance extrapolation of the B744ERF. We have therefore considered and subsequently selected the B777LRF.

I am pleased to announce that TNT Airways has secured the delivery of three new B777-200 Long Range Freighters for 2011.

As of last week, the Supervisory Board of TNT Group has granted us its approval for the B777LRF. The first aircraft delivery is scheduled for August 2011. They will operate alongside our existing fleet of B744ERF’s to Asia and are expansion aircraft.

This is great news for GAN’s development and a decisive element to continuing winning market share in Asia. I will present at the next Staff Meeting our business rational and the economical advantages that lead us to decide in
favour of the B777.

This is a significant project and the introduction of this new aircraft type will require some
organisational changes within TAY which will be addressed in September.

Finally you will have no doubt noticed last week information regarding the NATO Contract and the fact that we will be adding the B757 to our fleet by late 2011. We are considering to add a mid size freighter (I.e. B767) however we have not yet been able to conclude and decided to take further time to validate our business cases. It is therefore very likely that we would launch cover the interim with Wet Leased B767.

Best Regards,

Niky Terzakis

big time expansion plans - where will the 777F's come from ?

Surely 'NEW' means Boeing............!!!!!!

Even old ones are from Boeing, originally. Could be from a leasing company, I believe Guggenheim, who had the original slots for the 747s TNT now operate, has some 777Fs on order.

Interestingly it looks like TNT is going to end up operating 5-6 different types. I wonder how the economics of having a small fleet with many types is going to work out.

I understand that last year the management was complaining that operating costs were much too high. I don't see this improving it.

@ Wilmot
one outsider got what I meant - e.g. that given short delivery window, these would be aircraft which are already on order (Guggenheim who have 5 777F frames on order were already mentioned)

the other question would be what will be served with these three 777's and with the additional 744's - understanding that PVG is due to increase from 5 to 6 per week and HKG from 4 to 5, that still leaves quite some room for additional frequency or new routes

i see frequency increases at PVG from September onwards, as well as addition of some frequencies through CKG pn the eastbound legs....

so, they are able to use only 3 of their 4 744ERF?

Assume the fourth will stay with Emirates??

An Atlas Air B744F has started operating for TNT today!

Limburg, you seem to be in the know: how are the ops to and through CKG working out ?

:confused:So what about those B777 and B767 aircraft? It became very silent.

plan 9
 

:hmm: heard the news - LGG based ?

News from LGG
 

Hi folks!

there is a 767 coming, but is not for TNT. Gestair will operate at least one 767 to a new TNT destination which is Delhi. I'm not pretty sure if LGG-DUB as well.

There are plans to sell 146 fleet and bring 737's instead, but there is not a buyer and its price is quite high to be assumed for the actual market. So it would take place in 2012-2016 period.

Loulou ussally knows more than everyone...:ok:

Regards!

Airport clarification
 

It's not going to DUB it's DXB!

you are right no-engines,

Thank you! :ok:

Anyone know of a way to get hold of TNT's latest schedule including all the feeders? I have seen a pdf file before inc all the feeders eg Transaviabaltika, Solinair, Sprintair, Swiftair... anyone able to get one (maybe by PM?).

mmeteesside,

I'm sorry, but for obvious security reasons if I had it I couldn't provide you that information. If you read last week's newspapers you should know why.

I wish aviation was not a terrorism's hostage...:mad:
