Can anyone describe an example of a max touring roster and a min touring roster?

And still they come....:ugh:

HW

They come because there are ****tier jobs out there. Believe it or not.

Amazing !
The only captains they'll get to pay £245 are C152 captains,
Or maybe if they offer TP captains a leg up to a ' jet ' .

Has anyone been to an assessment day at CTC or are they going to any of them?

PM if anyone wants to answer without being scrutinised......

I guess if you've spunked £100k on your ' dream ',
£245 doesn't seem like much more, but the principle ?

And yet they keep coming like lemmings

Yep, drop those trousers and join the queue, oh and don't forget the lube :=

You would have thought that for £245 they would include a high quality lube.

No, you have to purchase that as well for £55 anyway we digress.

I am slightly confused by all this, are they actually charging to interview experienced pilots as well? Does this charge encompass everyone or just cadets?

Hi all

If anyone has recently had the assessment any advice is much appreciated via a PM
I know it costs for the assessment but with the grip that CTC has on the market some times you just have to play the game... Pretty much every airline in the UK is sewn up and geared towards cadets!

Looks like CTC not doing this or maybe its another 245 quid scam.,

BACF Do not use lube! They don't like to make anything easy. This way you feel the pain and they know you'll be easier later on ;-)

So how's cityflyer gonna manage now CP has been pushed out the emergency exit ?

For Captains, yes, still £245 for F/Os!

Can anyone send me a typical roster?
And is the payscale on Pilotjobs correct? So 41,796 for FO's ans 32,810 for cadet FO's. And what's the main difference between FO and cadet FO?
Cheers!

Anyone with info on what an EDI roster looks like at BACF who could PM?

Hell will freeze over before anyone gets into EDI base. A que of captains waiting to go. Maybe a little quicker for an FO ;)

Is it possible to move from City Flyer into BA mainline ?
