Eastern Airways recruitment
Eastern Airways has recently advertised for DEC positions ("predominantly in Aberdeen") and I'm thinking of applying.
I would appreciate some information on Ts & Cs, Roster and overall morale of the troops in the " UK's fastest growing, most successful airlines"...
Thanks in advance

Word on the grapevine is that they do recruit direct onto the saab. Excellent aircraft, no argument best turboprop there is, if you can get on it, i think its pretty much luck of the draw which fleet you end up on. Great aircraft, great mix of schedule and charters and good bunch of guys. Morale... depends on who you talk to.. Rostering is changing, recently has been unstable but changes to the way rostering is carried out that have been implemented in the last month should make a great improvement, we wait with baited breath to see the results. From what i hear and have seen seen it will be a marked improvement.

There are fewer and fewer Saab 2000s flying around out there. Looks like it would be a great airplane to fly - a real sportscar. How many Saab 2000s do Eastern have? Where are they based?

I know the selection for the Saab is not based on how good you are in the sim. Your friend with 200 hours is obviously blowing wind up his own pipe. The 41 is a demanding little aeroplane to operate compared to the Saab. Just right place right time is closer to the mark for Mr W

I'm ex Eastern Saab 2000 - only way I can describe the plane is "Awesome"
, its got all the gizmo's but your still able to fly it like a big twin
Am curently on a big jet and its nowhere near as nice - I would love to go back one day and fly the SB20 shame the money at Eastern wasnt enough to live on
best of luck
