For an ATR FO expect 3500/ 4000 euros per month, and lots of challenging airports

There is no information about the roster pattern in their package. And the crew base is not very clear neither.
Are their any staff tickets with olympic ?

Hey All,
I have also been contacted for an interview this coming mid September. I have a Dash 8 Type rating but I'm not a JAA license holder nor do i have a full ATPL. I am planning on attending the interview but before buying airline tickets from Canada to Greece i would like to know that i would actually be able to work and live in Greece and that my license is accepted in Greece. I have been unsuccessful in getting any response from the person who has contacted me via email with the interview dates. Anyone who has completed the interview and would be an expat pilot be able to shed some light on this.
Thanks
N.S.G

NSG,

To work in the EU you need to have the right to work in the EU. If you do not have the right then you need to be sure that Olympic will be able to get you the right.

Sorry.

Anyone know what the state of play is with their ATR operation? Are they flying revenue flights with them?

I thought this thread is about the terms!
Contractors offer approx. 4500 per month for FOs and over 8000 for CPTs on a 6 month contract, before tax and social/ill insurance. So how is the payment if you apply directly to Olympic?



Cheers

Parc Aviation is advertising for A320 FO and Dash 8 Captains for an airline in Greece starting October the 1st - sounds like Olympic so I guess that they have enough pilots for their other positions.

Hope this won't be regarded as off topic but...

Flight International Magazine is advertising pilot's positions at Olympic. Is that for rated-only or are the really looking for anyone with more than mere license and 200TT?

Regards

PZ

@flyhigh85: You can either send your application direct to Olympic (also see www.flightglobal.com) or you can apply through Parc Aviation if you are Dash 8 or A320 rated.

@papazulu: According to their advertising on flightglobal they are only looking for typerated pilots with experience on type.

For both types you need to be rated and experienced, speaking Greek will also help! Knowing someone in the airline helps more! I think the wages quoted here are a bit ambitious
