Flybe bond for the q400 is £13,500
BA citiexpress bond their pilots for £12,500 for a Q 300 type rating
Costs should be in the same league as an ATR type rating which should be around 13-15000 pounds

new money for old acft
Air Southwest only want £20k for their Dash 8 300 only £7k above market 
...and if you are lucky enough to get a job with them they'll bond you for 5 years with a salary of £19k p/a no diems. Go figure.
Sounds like someone is taking the p**s out of desparate new starters.
