It actually stands at £17k less. I have friends who have just joined both east side and west side operators. Very disappointing.
Be aware that retirement age with Bristow is 58 so make sure that your bank loan is paid off before then.

Well the contrcat that I signed said 58. I was always told that this allowed Bristow to terminate your services at that point if they wanted to replace you with a less expensive, younger, replacement or allow you to continue if it suited them.
In 2006 the UK parliament enacted a law against age discrimination. This law generally supersedes contractual retirement ages, hence Bristow UK now has captains in their sixties working towards the international age limit of 65 for public transport flights.
Additionally Bristow UK has retired captains flying as contract day-rate copilots. A couple of these could have continued as permanent full-time captains, but chose not to.
The table above showing salaries for various occupations seems somewhat out of date.
