Duffone,

Sector pay? LOL insurance? Pension? Holiday? Medical?

Does it sound like it is a place that will work, or another short lived wonder?

Must say, am very tempted as it is local. However, I wonder if they will survive?

What intrigues me is that the CEO is given as Lars Welinder, Chief Executive Officer (interim).

Excuse my simple pilots logic but I take it that the permanent CEO has yet to be appointed.

Its pure speculation on my part but do they have someone more well known waiting in the wing to take over as CEO at a later date?

Sector/Flight pay: under discussion
LOL: Yes
Pension: Matched to 7.5%
Holiday: 36 days (inc PH)
Medical: Have to check on that...

Oh, and re: CEO:
It is NOT, repeat NOT, a certain American lady waiting in the wings...

They gave me different T&C's:

FO: £34,750
Holidays: 20 days + 8 PH
Crew Allowance £40 per night (assume that is for unscheduled night-stop).

I enjoyed the interview, but had alot more questions to ask about T&C, rostering etc, but these would be more appropriate for when a job is offered.

Any news of the sim? I've been asked, but am still waiting for the letter to arrive. I have heard that it might be at LHR.

Civil,

Yes, been asked too for a sim check, however I have never flown a 737 for real, so am not really worried. I guess it will be like any other jet. Pitch and Power.....

Am strapped and very busy for dates at the moment, do you have any idea when yours may be?

Also are you looking at the third or fourth airplane?
