Heres a question. The money quoted, is that pro-rata or is that the total contract money for the 6 months?

I seriously doubt it! That's pro-rata salary for sure . . . Otherwise, I'll find a hat to eat . . .

Wd smoothflier, all best for your interview.

May I ask what experience level you have eg total time, hrs on type etc; just to get an indication of where I stand with total 1350hrs total time with 1100 hrs on a320.

Would be very interested if anybody else who has a TC interview could post this info. Many tks.

F*%k!$g bankers messing about with our money to get over inflated bonuses for it all to go bust, our money bails them out, they don't pass on the intrest rate cuts on our mortgages and then award themselves bonuses, could you see anyone else doing that? Thats how messed up our society is now, only good thing on ITV is the champions league, Trisha and Jeremy Kyle ruling the airwaves getting overweight, estate dwelling, tracksuit wearing, tweety pie tattooed on their breast inbreads to fight and take lie-detector tests. Where a single white male is the most over taxed, under valued and gets no breaks at all.

Whats the solution, drop VAT to 15%, so my mobile phone bill comes down 50p a month, cheers. Better apportioning that money to building schools (keeps construction workers in jobs), building infrastructure projects (work for civil engineering) than other useless policies.

As a result, airlines suffer, Chuck Yaeger would probably be told "yes but we're just not sure on you yet" if he was lucky to get an interview.

Pisses me off, just hope this cyclical 7 year thing we keep on hearing about materialises.

If I turn on BBC World once more and see that bloody travel program talking about a world pilot shortage of 19,000 by the year 2015 I will go mental and launch aforementioned BBC World and the TV it is displayed on out of the window Rockstar styleee.

Rant over
