Is It Possible to Live in Sydney and fly for Virgin?
Is it a realistic option to fly for Virgin and live in Sydney (eg commute).
Realistically, how many days (under current EBA) could you expect to be away from Sydney?? |
I doubt it
Having had reasonably close contact with an ex VB pilot of late, I seriously doubt your prospects.
From what I understand, you get your minimum 8 days off in 28 and that's it. Some are split days. I think you would have to work from Brisvegas, and I think that if you are a family man, don't expext to see the family very often, even from there..... |
Walter.........I think the resounding cascade of supportive replies answers your question!
|
sy/bn, sy/bn, bn/sy and you pick sy????????????????????
|
I'll just settle for........"Is it possible to live in Sydney",
given the cost of living, accomodation, petrol, etc! Cheers |
When I was down there you could spend 350,000 on a chook pen.
And they have done another 20% since AN collapsed. Probably not a desirable place to be on a DJ FO salary. |
Will someone please give me a f*cking straight answer.
Is it possible and/or realistic to have a family life in Sydney and commute and fly the line for DJ? |
-------------------------- NO --------------------------

A straight answer is NO, I was talking an ex vb fo who had to leave because he had a family in sydney and was away from home to long. He only stayed with VB for 3 months... He had left a dash 8 Capt job for it too... Bumma.

Slight correction, Aztrucker. I know the person to whom you refer. He was not a Capt, but was very close to upgrade.
Tough choice, but you never know unless you go........ |
