Jetcraft Anyone?

Thinking of sticking in an application for JC, anyone have any recent dealings with them? Meet all their mins and want to know about conditions, pay etc? Not that keen on moving unless they can 'show me the money', which, isn't everything I know, but it sure helps.

Employment involves mutual commitment and obligations. Jetcraft are a respectable and honourable company that has been around for a long time.

With your perceived attitude you may be better advised to look elsewhere?

Geez, Air Ace, you can perceive an attitude after three lines
With a skill like that you should start up your own online resume filter and make a fortune while saving employers everywhere from employing d!ckheads

I thought it a pretty reasonable question.

I guess it was a bit harsh!

It was the "come and buy me if you can afford me" comment that caught my eye:

"Not that keen on moving unless they can 'show me the money',..."

I've always seen employment as a mutual agreement to the benefit of both parties.

I guess the world has changed. And no thanks on the airline thing: been there, done that!

The big fella

Wessex,

My information is that yes, "the big fella" is still "running things" at Jetcraft....

Air Ace, thanks for the info, sorry, didn't mean to sound self-righteous but it is getting to the point where i'm unwilling to fly scary machines on a scarce income. I have no hesitation in putting my current boss down as a reference to confirm his satisfaction with our own current mutual agreement. It wasn't a 'case of come buy me if you can afford me', more a case of I've a wife and kids to support and am sick of dragging them to sh!tholes.

Yes.

We particularly remember that one in South Australia some years ago.
