Facing the music

I note that when your surgeon cocks it up, he/she is still around to face the music.

I think that the post from 27/09 sums up the situation most succinctly.

Incidentally, the two fish and chip shops in my area are run by Chinese people.

Perhaps one of them might be you?

Cockney Steve.... Classic mate, comparing pilots to surgeons.

Anyone can give an update here on the offered T&C's?
From what Ive heard they are offering for F/Os:

Basic monthly salary (guaranteed, independent of hrs flown): 3800 EUR
Housing allowance: 500 EUR
Flight pay: 800 EUR

So total of 5100 EUR/month BEFORE TAX AND SOCIAL INSURANCES. Can anyone confirm this? How much would there be left on "take home pay"?? :confused:

Also, offered bases at the moment are LPA and AGP.

How are pilots supposed to pay their taxes in this case? And social insurance, according to the new EU law this would mean them having to pay it in Spain. However, is is the contracting agency that will pay it or the pilot him/herself? Anyone knows any details about this?

It seems they are definitely trying to copy the Ryanair system....Looks like this is just the beginning of a big "Ryanairisation" of Norwegian....:yuk:
