EAAC: What's the score?

[Fred Elliot]

Does anyone have up to date gen on EAAC (especially as based at Bournemouth), please? ie: what's their financial situation (weren't they somewhat shaky?); what are they like to work for; T's & C's etc. Grateful for the low-down.

Thanks all.

Yes, big recruitment drive to replace some of the 650 staff sacked last year. The advert says 'takes you to where you want to go' not the Dole Office I hope. They still owe a lot of people money. Industrial Tribunals are likely to start in Feb.

Tread carefully. Some of the management are just incompetent.

Thanks for that, Mr. Goafer. I don't blame Pruners for being cautious, or to believe me but this is a genuine request for information, having applied in response to the recent ad. in Flight.


Thanks, gang.

B737 or B747 fleet?

[Fred Elliot]

I've got an Airbus rating (and a couple of years on type) but no 74 (or 73 for that matter), so I've applied for 73 under the 'unrated' umbrella. (Actually, I'd give bits of my body for a crack at the 74, but beggars can't be wosnames). As I say, any gen appreciated - PM if you like (if I can make it work!!!)
