Opportunities are limited under the Program and interest level is high. Only those candidates who possess the right skills and attitude will be selected to interview for and enter the Program. If you have an exceptional flying background and skills, and can make a long term commitment to the Airline we'd love to hear from you.
Monthly Payment: Figures quoted are net of Indonesian taxes, in USD and are based on 10 weeks on 2 weeks off duty roster. However, the first rotation will be completed on a 16 weeks on and 3 weeks off basis, to allow for progress with initial training and other start of contract formalities.

The program
Wow..
Lion Air gets more and more innovative eh????
I can't think of anyone who's currently flying with an airline as a P-2 that'll be stupid enough to apply to the "PROGRAM".
Maybe a P2F pilot who's paid for 1000 hrs and now wants to pay for his/her command
What next, Pay to become a TRI/TRE????
masalama.

Farking ridiculous. The upgrade has nothing to do with ability nor aptitude, just cash.
Honestly this will throw any captains that come out of lion air into serious disrepute. If you are a captain there right now you would be smart to start applying for other jobs right now or you will be stuck there forever. Jesus christ, just stop applying to ****ty jobs with humiliating conditions and the industry will be forced to offer better terms.

I guess next Lion Air will require a pilot to buy a 737 and give it to them to fly there. I hope some one starts a list of names and keeps it updated if people buy into this crap so they can be considered scabs.

There be a lot grumpy FOs in Lionair. who are receiving sh*T pay and and been there many years who oversee by lion to upgrade.. even they meet the minimums.
But see the other side... i heard there a many expats have a issue with attitude and god gift to flying syndrome etc... but not as bad as some east asia friends.
anyhow 30K USD bond is pricey.. and RISH worth is going to keep a healthy interest from the bonds they keep...

"RISHWORTH AVIA-WHORE"
I've always said that Rishworth is a pimping company. They will do whatever they need to do in order to pull quid off you.
RW has no morals, it is all about hosing you to benefit them.
The fact they will not refuse a contractual aberration such as this is very demonstrative of their respect for Crew members.
Work for RW and you are a Avia-Whore. You deserve everything bad that happens to you.....you lowered the industry standards by accepting the AVIA-Whore title. Next time you bitch about how bad your standard of living is, just look in the mirror and tell yourself...."I am an AVIA-WHORE, I did this to myself and I deserve everything bad that happens to me". "I sold my soul to RW and I am now an AVIA-WHORE, so I cannot expect to be treated like a professional...I am an AVIA-WHORE".
You wanted it, now you got it. Work for RW and you are an AVIA-Whore.

RISHWORTH AVIA-WHORE"
Rishworth has not been perfect in the past, but I can assure you that over the last ten years they have risen to the top, especially by not gaffing their crews each payday and calling it a banking fee, I think they currently charge $9.00 wire transfer fee, their health insurance has been better than the competitions for a long time.
In between my contracts with different airlines, they voluntarily kept up the health insurance benefits without any gaps, they are honest and very helpful when problems occur, I've had two contracts with them and would gladly go to work for them again if they would have me!

First time
Hi guys
This is my first post in one of those forums.
I received this offer to work at Lion Air from one of the recruitment person of Rishworth and I get very interested.
If some of you could clarify what are the negatives points against Lion Air, I will appreciated.
Thanks for you patient.

No, it is not a joke..
I work for the second airline company which pay more in Brazil and the salary is almost the same that they are offering in Lion Air.
My rank here is 371 in company's fleet and I have no expectation for a promotion, at least none in 4 more years..
I know that exist better companies with better contracts and that's exactly why I am asking what is wrong with these one here...
If there is any expat that works for Lion Air I really would like to hear from..

How much is the hourly allowance? Do you only get allowance after the first 90 hours block? Or it means you are guaranteed to get 90 hours block even if you fly below 90 hours a month?
