There is no overtime. That is what the 22% composite covers

You mean bucket loads of night shift ! That’s why they give you 6 weeks off!
Squark,
That's standard Pilot award Annual Leave entitlement: 4 weeks with Leave Loading and an additional 2 weeks without, in lieu of weekends and public holidays.

It’s a standard cop arrangement too. They get 10 days for public holidays, but also get a couple more off as there are more than 10 in a year (depending on the state).

Even the old Airvan Drivers were on way better money than what they are offering now.

Does anyone know what a Composite Allowance actually is? People are making this assumption that it's 22% extra pay but it could be 22% of some base wage like most allowances so adds up to not very much.

Also a bad look for them when Careflight has an ad 2 below them for B200 Pilots and offering $133k a year! lol.

QGAir Base Manager $135,499

megle2 10th Dec 2019 22:45

and QGAir pilots are flat out staying current with so little flying. Granted the Police sector pilots do a lot more and maybe on less pay

So essentially they own you and can recall you anytime of the day or night, weekends etc with very little notice.

They never had one. QPOL has them.

They charter one. Survey 400. Exemptions exist for lights-off on casa website. Regularly seen over Melbourne in a grid pattern at 8,000ft plus.

Is that so? Most state governments have one......funded by the AFP....FACT

15.4% super, 6 weeks annual leave with a flexible roster.

Job security is all but guaranteed.

Is that not better then most other turbo prop jobs??

What is REX & QLink etc paying?

The surprise for me is no ATPL requirement for the 350 nor 2 crew

No job security is ever guaranteed. Especially in the government.

I have been directly involved with these aircraft and the fit-out etc. is funded by the AFP. As you may appreciate, to go into more detail would be indiscreet. You can accept that or not, your choice

geeup 8th Jun 2020 03:07

Is this job still available?

Or was it a secure job?

Climb150 8th Jun 2020 18:03

I would say that seeing it was advertised in Dec 19, it isn't available anymore.
