Are you joining as a cadet? If no, then i guess no re your question
Cadet is quite a loose term these days, most airlines which dont ask for self funded type ratings at the moment are putting 'experianced' non-type rated FOs on lower salaries or 'cadet' salaries. Go to Easy with 3000hrs+ but no type rating and you will see a 'cadet' payscale.
Seems a perfect reasonable question to me and not 'petty' at all.

CathayBrat,
Even though I admire your one man crusade to change the world of aviation for the better, you still havnt been of any help.
I'm not advocating nor accepting that we should have lower salaries if we are not type rated but if CF do, well it's thier train set! I for one will not be joining them if they are going to reduce thier already lower than average salaries, I would earn more at my current low paying outfit.
But so I don't waste anymore of my time and CF HR's time I'll ask the question again:
Do CF put non-type rated guys on reduced salaries?

Hi all!
Do you guys really think this email is just an automatic generated message? I really had the feeling it was sort of a invite already.
I have quite a important schedule next month. It would cause me a lot of problems to shift things around. So before I do, it would be quite important for me to know if this was indeed an automatic generated message.
Hope anybody can help.
Thank you!

Ok, thanks for those answers.
@carbheatout: Didn't know you would go mad. But still thanks for your answer.
I really thought they would make a first pre-selection based on hours TT etc. But my mistake I guess...

If you are available for at least one of the days there is no reason to contact us
But you don't get to choose one of the days offered, so this quote is not right. Well whatever happen.
I'm thininking of buying a ticket now because prices goes way up if I wait next week... Well I will still have to pay fees if I cancel my flight then...

I almost fell of my chair laughing at the chap who asked if BACF would pay for travel!! Ha, Ha!
Umm. Just so that you are all aware... when selected and you start the ground School course, you will be expected to get the train from one of the hotels (Bed and Breakfast basis) near MAN airport and submit the receipts at the end of the course. Expect to wait several weeks for the money back!
And No I am not joking!!!

We were put up at the Hilton at MAN with not transport arranged. Same deal. As an example, I'm still waiting for a claim I made last christmas! (even after chasing them up)

To be fair at least they will be providing hotel. I believe its £3 train to didsbury from airport so not going to bankrupt anyone.
Check out the Jet2 thread, they want you to pay for rating, accommodation whilst doing said rating, 50% pay until line check completion and then all you have is a 70% contract.
It is ridiculous to think they will pay for transport to the interview, would you expect the same from any other industry???
