Well according to their website it is a Guernsey box no. (not an office) and they have an 0208 (London) telephone number.
Sounds like a London based start-up that think they are offshore but, particularly with a London telephone number, they ain't because the Channel Islands are losing their offshore status!

Solutions...
The solution is easy to understand, Señor Flintstone.

Your salary with them is $8,000/month.
The airline contracts them to supply you for $12,000/month.
Their "solution" is $4,000/month in their bank account.
And all that obviously "offshore" and "no benefits" for you.

I live in hel and haven't noticed anything in the newspapers about a start up.
May be blx are starting a base as they are the only people that regularly use 737ng's around here.
I wait in anticipation, but don't worry I retired long ago and was an airbus man.

Smells like shait, looks like shait so must be shait. Flightcrew Solutions had a contract with Latcharter come Smartlynx, a total disaster from what I heard. Promises made and agreements not held by either the contract agency or company. They lost 6 Captains and a few FO's in a few weeks time and apparently it was not smooth sailing at all. The Irish one does not unfortunately have a very good rep around the industry, undeserved some would say? I'd use extreme caution when dealing with the gent in question. Ask yourself a question: Would you buy a used car from this man?

paid on time
I worked for Flight Crew Solutions for 4+ years and every month I got the exact amount of money which was agreed in my contract, paid into my bank account and if there was a problem ( extra overtime or day off payment etc ) , it was taking care of right away.

You certainly are worth your name. Would you please ask us about our view of the said person. That is , those who had the displeasure of working for him and his show for many years, what we think of it him and his cohorts, before you post total utter stupidity such as you did on a public forum please.

My advice.
Stay away from this company and said "unmentionable name".
Worked under this contract and had trouble getting paid. Would never touch it again, even if it would be the last contract I'd would ever be offered.
And no, I will not elaborate on it.
I'm still baffled how "unmentionable name" is still working the field after so many burned bridges.
