NetJets Europe
Hi all,
Thinking of applying to NetJets Europe (as direct entry FO) after reviewing the new crew package on offer.
I must say it is pretty tempting but would also want any inside information on the day to day life of NetJets pilots the working environment and how the job compares to the airline pilots one.
Any comments welcomed
Many thanks in advance

While 1500 hours is the minimum, it's best if you get some multi crew and multi engine time. I know it's hard to get but it's well worth your while to do so.
Good luck.

500 hours multi pilot/turbine is what you're aiming for as a minimum. (with the 1500 hours etc)
Of course, some folks will get in with less but that's the exception. (At the moment)
Jobs to consider if corporate work is your goal.
Air taxi work.
Exec work in a King Air or bigger.
Airline work in a turboprop.
loco jet work.
Ideally, you'll be seeking a position that'll get you used to working with a tight schedule, lots of changes, VIP passenger contact, multi crew and if possible, FMS/Glass.
Now I am not speaking officially as a representative of Netjets Europe but these are just my thoughts and experiences as a line pilot.
