A line pilot position has become available with the North Wales Police Air Operations Unit to fly the EC135 police/HEMS helicopter.

http://www.north-wales.police.uk
click 'recruitment', then ' police staff'.
I have only just checked the draft advert so don't expect anything in print until the end of March, beginning of April.
Our minimum criteria:
2000hrs total, of which 1500 PiC.
200hrs T.T.
300hrs onshore exp.
200hrs night flying experience, of which 50hrs PiC.
Substantial mountain flying experience.
Type rating/police experience not essential.
This is a direct employment post with all the usual benefits.
IF you are genuinely interested in applying and you wish to know more, e-mail me.

There's one going at Lancashire as well.

TC,

Followed the link but
Is it too late to apply?

Please can you verify for us, "Substantial mountain flying experience".
Would an Austrian Air Force High Mountain Landing Course, Saillagouse, AAC dets and a bit of work with the Snowdonia National Park be enough?
Or are you looking for someone from across the pond?

Thanks.
SS

No mention anywhere of a forthcoming vacancy at WCAOU by any chance, is there? :ooh: :ouch:

Direct Employment seems to be the up and coming thing. What with the effect of the revised PITO framework and the trickle of pilots from the existing DE Units :ok:

My sources tell me there is likely to be a need for replacement line pilot at Sussex too in the near future.

Silsoe: Not too late, too early in fact. Ad comes out around 2/4. (Hence nothing in the web site yet).

Your mountain flying exp. seems fine - It's not the size of the mountains that count it's what you do with them that requires the experience!
Get your application in if you fancy waking up each morning to some of the most beautiful scenery in the UK.

Good luck.

Don't think so, but it looks like there might be a vacancy at West Mids soon...:rolleyes:

Yeah, right:rolleyes:

Thud_and_Blunder, would that be a fail to stop type opening? :oh:

I bet the pay is in line with the high skills/hours needed...

...or 'B'

so, what do we think the remuneration will be for this position?

Is poor pay the reason for the vacancy? :rolleyes:

flimflam,

On the basis of the last avertisements for the post, no one will ever know apart from those who work there.

Hi, sounds good two me. I am interested. Ex mil (AAC) with over 4000 hrs but no twin. That is usually the problem for me..

Whats the score with the vacancy in Lancs?

that's ok, just tell them you will use the one engine at a time, and it will also save the police service a few quid in engine hours

Hingmay, your problem isn't no twin time, it's the fact that you can't speak English. ;)

I think you'll find the pay is in the top percentile for the emergency services industry as it's a directly employed post. This job also comes with a final salary pension, overtime, expenses, LOL.

TT
 

Tell me about it... where is the logic nowadays?

wg13_dummy, If you're based around North Wales then the locals might prefer that you can't speak English!;)

If the Independent Republic of North Wales bump into Hingmay, they'll think he's from another planet.....:} :}
