sounds a bit much to expect you to fly the aircraft up yourself before you're even hired and not even tell you which one it is - how come MOL hasn't thought of that?

Well..... I was given the option to either fly myself up on a type not yet specified OR pay for a sim assessment like all the good airlines who like to charge would make us do !!
Well whats a guy to do !!
Thank god citiexpress does not rip off its potential f/crew like some of the others do !!
(ahhh a real company at last !!)
never been on a dash or had a citiExp interview !! Cant wait !!

It's normally a Dash-8 but due to GBRYW being out of service in ABZ (incident with a ground power unit!) it can either be a 145 on 146 depending on the crew situation. Out of all the Dash-8 sectors out of MAN the 7730/7731/7742/7743 and 7734/5/6/7 are
the easiest to cover.
We'll be lucky to see GBRYW before Christmas!
An despite all the bitching about the company in other posts, it's not all that bad! - good luck

The stuff posted in the Times isn't anything new and all speculative. There will be changes and I'm confident they'll be for the better and long overdue. There are alot of people that have been moved from one type to another and relocated time after time (myself included). It's been tough and my loyalty has been tested but I'll always try and remain optomistic about the future. Always take what you read here with a pinch of salt.

Whatever
Travelled as pax on the 7731 this morning. Embraer 145, cooked English breakfast on a 40 min. trip. Outstanding.
Usually it's a Dash-8. Same catering, noisier, bumpier and slightly longer flight, but all-round excellent service on this route.
Good luck with your interview.

Good luck with interview - let us know how you get on. My ideal goal is to fly BACX from Manchester once I finish my training... oh well - got to dream, it's the only way no to cry at the amount of time & oney that's disappearing rapidly!
