Thats great thanks so much for the information, much appreciated. I've alsways thought that baby would be a good place to be as I've very very rarely heard anything negative.
One small point, they are looking for 737 guys and obviously being at FR all my hours are on the NG. Would this in any way be a disadvantage? Also, and I have asked this question elsewhere but always good to get additional clarification, would the LST/LPC at the end of the conversion count as a check to upgrade to full ATPL. I dont yethave the ATPL but do have the hours for it and would obviously be keen to go straight onto the £45k starting salary! In fact it would be essential!
Again thanks for the info, it certainly sounds an improvement from what I'm suffering at the moment.

I presume that your licence will include B737 300 - 900 rating in which case there should be no problems. Obviously there will be operating differences but again not really a problem.
Just mention to the TRE doing your LPC that you need to complete paperwork for issue of an ATPL and he/she will gladly oblige. I believe the only difference is that a raw data ILS must be flown - but do check!
Once ATPL has been issued and you're checked to the line (which shouldn't take long for someone with 738 experience) your salary will be £45k.
Best of luck with your application.

ATPL upgrade is LPC plus raw data ILS which is ATPL skills test!
Make sure they tick the ATPL test box on your LPC ticket before you send it to the CAA, then all you need to do is write a bid cheque!
