PARC Aviation contracts

I am considering a short term (pilot) contract sourced with PARC. Does anyone have anything to share about their experience working for PARC. All views are very welcome as I would like to ensure my eyes are well and truely open before I go into this.
Thanks in advance

I've worked with PARC on various assignments over the last six years and
have always had a good experience. Most importantly, I've been paid on time as well!

Good luck

I have dealt with PARC about 7 years ago ferrying aircraft about. PARC was spot on with the money being deposited into the bank and ensured crews were taken care of in the event of any delays.

I started in my present company flying for PARC. They took care of us, payed us on time and was always ready to help.
I ended up getting a permanent job in the same company. So for me PARC was even a way to a "real" job.

Good luck

I know of many who have worked for Parc down the years and haven't anything other than good stories about them. They used to be owned by Aer Lingus until a management buyout around the mid-nineties.

Personaly I never worked for PARC but for an other contracting company. From the outside viewed PARC seems to be a better contract company than many others out there. People I talked to just confirmed what is mentioned above.

does anybody know...

...or can give an educated guess, what the payment for a short term 737 engagement via PARC in india would be?
reason: my company is "offering" us to go to india during the winter, but i'm getting a very strong feeling someone is trying to sell us under current world market fare.

FCS

Sorry can't help you on that as the one I'm looking at is definitely not that contract. Good luck with yours though.
