I would say that the prospects of someone who enjoys being in the back of a darkened box are very good. We have recently recruited direct enter TRE's and TRI's.

As for how much you make nett, it depends on which base you are at, as your sector pay and duty pay makes a difference. At ALC you will earn less than most other bases as you fly less, it also depends on how much you choose to pay into the pension, and also on the Spanish tax rate vs UK tax.
It sounds good to me... just one question more. Is there any extrapayment when they send you to fly out of base?

You get your hourly duty allowance and your sector pay for the sectors that you fly, you will be accommodated on B&B basis and your transfers will all be organised for you either using hotel courtesy bus or taxi.

Has anybody heard about interview assessments or start dates. It seems to be quiet on the recruitment front at the moment. Any news?

That is great news for 2018. As a "talent pooler", we just have to hope that there isn't a glut of type rated people and the company then dip into our pool for pilots

DEC floating in the pool since last October, think they are flat out busy doing upgrades and NTR at the minute, stand to be corrected, but courses running until April I was told so sit tight and wait to hear from us. It may also depend on what base you are after aswell, don’t know anymore than that!

Figures above...

If by 4 months off you mean taking the optional winter leave then those figures seem way off. On the 737 as a DEFO with experience in the UK you would expect basic of £53,916 plus sector and duty pay. The 737 is definitely queiter in the winter but I looked at my friends roster and he is still flying 7 days a month in November so not exactly commutable. If you are talking about the winter leave option then obviously reduce these figures.

For context on the 757 I have 7 days flying between now and December.

As for the Spanish contracts I have no idea where these figures are and I would be interested to see them myself.

None of us mortals knows what the bonus scheme will be exactly, full private health insurance takes effect from January 2018 I believe.

Very quiet indeed Quasar2548. I was thinking the same thing. They give no timescale to talent poolers just a recurring "we're still interested" but not enough to make you an offer.
Hopefully it's just a logistical problem in the training department.
