Cobham 717

[I CAN DO IT]

Could someone in the know please advise how Cobham recoup the cost of endorsements for the 717.

Do you get bonded for a period of time or do you pay up front ?

[HardCB]

Thats a very old contract,We have a New shiney one as of NOW !!

Starting on 84k once checked from Sim.
3 years bond, $30K

[Capn Bloggs]

"We"? HardCB from Un Zud. Invasion!

[Chocks Away]

I hope not Bloggs as there's enough movement in the ranks that we can't access (such as in Air NZ) back in the 9th State...

Cobham B717

Any Cobham pilots out there who can give some info about this job, schedules, QOL, morale, bases, etc?

I see they are advertising for capts and f/o's

thanks

Australia's only got 6 states. NZ would make seven if you're speaking in jest.....

[Chocks Away]

Ok then GG, "6 States & 2 Territories" = 8 plus NZ would make = 9
(not accounting for Norfolk Island who recently succeeded to Aust Governance as a "Territory" due to bankruptcy.)

Now back to the ball game... B717 & Cobham...

[captainng]

Does anyone know when they will be interviewing?
and what sort of response they have had to the advetisement?

[The Green Goblin]

Also some more trivia, the commonwealth star on the Australian flag has seven points. 6 representing the states, and the 7th representing states in the future (such as the open invite to NZ, or the promise of statehood to the territories).

[Typhoon650]

One could also consider the Antarctic territory and remote islands as territories as well.

[The Green Goblin]

They are not part of the mainland & continental shelf.

They are excluded when making reference to Australia and it's territories. They are however called Australian external territories and the Australian Antarctic Territory.

Really?

Come on people, pilot stuff. I feel like a big enough nerd already. Ha ha

[Capt Fathom]

The AD was in Flight Magazine! WTF!

Are there no pilots left in Australia to fill these positions?

[Tidbinbilla]

Back on topic, thanks - Cobham

[blumoon]

A fair bit of recruitment from what i've heard... Need to create crews for the 5 new Jets!..

Not the best EBA but they are recruiting

[Pilotshumornetwork]

Hi All, has anyone applied for the 717 positions recently advertised? If so have you heard back from them. I see the positions are no longer advertised on there website.

[BPA]

Just checked their website and positions are still there.

[Pilotshumornetwork]

Yeah just checked and found it too. I could have sworn it wasn't posted the other day. Going blind I guess. Does anybody have and info on their recruitment process?

[neon123]

Your right Pilotshumornetwork, the position was indicated as 'closed' on their website. It is now open again. I hear they are still going through the applications.

[Pilotshumornetwork]

Thanks for the info mate
