EZY TRSS here to stay?

[FunFlyin]

And there was me thinking to apply for the TRSS scheme you still needed 500 hours multi crew

200 sep - woohoo

[5150]

you are fixed on the TRSS initial salary of £31K for the first 5 years

That's for an FO, you'll jump up to SFO TRSS salary once you've got your ATPL - around 40K basic.

Either way, it still sucks that you'll still be paying for your type rating over a 5 year period.

PAPI, just to be sure, the TRSS scheme is for people like myself ( and you) with t/prop or smaller jet experience.
The 200 hour fATPL pilots become CTC cadets which is a different system and pay structure completely.
I would, of course, rather have been bonded and be on full pay for the first 5 years but had to decide for myself what suited me better, that or staying with the previous job.

Yes I was being a bit general.
They get a better deal cos it only costs them 7K....which they get back at £1000 per month....WTK
Easy are good...but not that good. I like LCY anyway at the moment. Great rush in the wind / rain.

Corect me if I am wrong, but I would only get bitter if I made the kids go without again to borrow more to front it....I know you get it back, but then you only get paid 31K. No thanks, I will go elsewhere when I am ready.

Pilots are already paying for the MCC, which was never asked for as a min requirement. We will be paying to get our CV looked at soon and sim check.......DOOOWWW!!! we are if we work for a PIKIE....
Come on Brothers / Sisters give them a moon and say BOX

To place this TRSS stuff in another perspective:

When I appled to eJ I had 4378 hours total, including piston, turbo prop and jet. Of jet time there was 3062 hours (2950 on heavy 4-engine jets), including nearly 1300 in command. I passed their selection and sim but all they offered me was TRSS on the Airbus ............... because my jet time was all military with none of the aircraft now on the civilain register. I thought that sucked ................ and went elsewhere.

MrB,
Good for you.
Who the Hell do they think they are.
When I get my 500hrs jet time with another company, I may just apply, just to turn it down.
You would think that if the CAA (of all people) would give you a set number of hours (500 if I remember correctly) towards your ATPL, then Ezy would give you the same....
Maybe all they want are YES men / boys.....
