Bond recruiting
Just saw a half page ad in FI for Bond air services. IR and 135 type included for suitable canditades - based all over UK for HEMS and police. 2000 hours TT min with 500 multi - seems like a pretty good deal to me !

I also hear that they need offshore pilots. Is there any truth in the rumour that CHC can't employ anyone due to the fact that the simulator in Europe is too busy for the previously interviewed candidates?
I saw an ad last year and thought they were desperate? Obviously not.
and no, I don't work for the CAA, but funnily enough my ex now does.!!

Bond Recruiting
What is the Bond Air Services web site, can't seem to find it anywhere? I know it's been banded around on Rotorheads before, but being slow today, can'tget the search facillity to work properly either..

Does anyone know any truth in the rumour that next year, once I believe EASA takes over licencing. They are going to bring all ICAO licences under 1 umbrella. I did hear that I would be able to convert an FAA ATPL to JAA equivilant. I work in the US and would like to return to UK to work. I was also lead to believe that the reason you can't do it now, is that America hasn't got a letter of agreement with the UK on this. Becuase the FAA have oral test prior to a flight test, and the UK doesn't this is where the problem lye's.... I think.
Anyone shed any light on this..
I know CHC except FAA Quailifications

Maybe your ex and I could discuss it over dinner...

5.0, My ex husband probably wouldn't want to have dinner with you. He's Straight, unless you are female of course, in which case it wouldn't surprise me if he already has!
I think DeltaNG has understood my point. As i'm led to believe, someone with those sort of qualifications would be very employable, especially if they were accompanied by an Instrument Rating. They'd probably already have a nice job?

I don't see how EASA, which is European, are going to bring all ICAO licences under one umbrella, unless you mean that they are going to accept all ICAO licences as a basis for some exemptions?
I have heard sniffs of such things, but nothing concrete yet

Not so much a rumour, it's also advertised in Flight International!
Dyfed Powys Police
(They are also looking for a CP).
Best of luck with your application!

Paco,
There is a sort of tentative proposal out from the EU/EASA to extend their covergae to include personnel licensing. The CAA drew attention to it in a recent FODCOM (02/06).
http://www.caa.co.uk/application.asp...detail&id=2125
There is a link there to the UK government requests for comment.
I did not yet get a chance to read the detail. However, the circulation list did not seem to include all sorts of significant bodies like the BHAB. They couldn't be trying to get it in under the radar could they.
