Capt c17000 TL/month in a weakening currency due geopolitcal proximity to mid east

no leave first year.

2 2 2 1 1 are sequence of days off..doesn't say how much you work in between.....I'm guessing 6 probably sometimes 5

phone must be on 24/7

leave in the first year you pay training costs....unquantified

if they fire you in first year ' with just cause' you pay training costs

essentially one year probation period


basically

Airlines, a bonus payment of
gross TL 8,256.00 is going to be given every three months
( In March, July, September and December over the sum of (1) seniority payment and (2)

The details of the gross monthly payment of

Employee is as determined below;

(TL÷2= Euro rate approximately says PASRC, RUBBISH its now 1E = 2.25L!!!!)

Alot of the salary is productivity based, and the number of hours need to obtain that level of renumeration isnt stated.

alright Damianik,

let me put it this way

you pay training costs for your letter of reference and depending on how close they are to the DGCA a letter of no incidents, accidents or investigations.

Wthout those 2 things you won't get another job flying

You Only need a reference from an operator you use the hours from.
I explain, i worked 2 months for an italian operator on a HS125, then i applied for a B737 job, do you think i bothered getting a reference from that HS125? not. That is the point.
This is valid in any case, but to be fair, i plan to stay put in Turkish for a while, just i am not very pleased at changing of conditions on the run, and if it changes again i guess i would be forced to leave.

The price to pay, if fair, will be paid, if not, will be left unpaid.

So Damianik, how do you like the Atakoy Marina hotel then?

You won't see much of Turkey by staying in your room all day

if you are in hkg you have to apply the time difference before you judge if i am all day in the room or all night...and in either case, Istanbul never sleeps...

NOBODY needs a leter of recommendation or incident free from Turkish !

Just to put the facts right - Vikena or so - is absolutely WRONG, as

NOBODY needs a letter of recommendation or proof of incident free from the clowns in Turkish HR !
It all depends on Your whole CV - the last bit of flying for a scruffy operator like Turkish is almost negligable - i definitively didn't need it for my new job as skipper on A 330!

Ciber,

Please share with us the reasons you are so disappointed with THY.
Here is the place to put good and factual information. That's what PPRUNE is all about.

tks,
