Hello gents, i am looking around for my future and I might apply as relief captain 787 position. Can you help me to get the answer to my questions? 1. How is the environment in the company? 2. How long does it takes the upgrade to Cpt from relief Cpt? 3. Is easy to commute for those whom doesn't live in the base? 4. How good ar the chances to obtain FCO base? thank you to everyone for your help, appreciate it. |
1. Good atmosphere 2. About 2 years depend on performance and if you upset anyone 3. Random rostering, not always easy. Main base LGW, expect standbys there. 4. Don’t know |

What is the take home pay for an FO? BCN or LGW?
Do you have to pay the bond in cash? Is it commutable, currently based in the Northern UK but looking to move to PMI. Cheers |

Cheers The bond can be either a bank guarantee where you pay around 1-2% interest or you can pay in cash. However you won't receive any interest on your money. I'm considering a move to PMI as well. I expect around 4300-5000€ net. |

How standbys work? How many can you expect in a month?

Ask rishworth aviation , they’ll have all the TCs. how many standbys ? How long is a piece of string, “ variable “ |
So if the bond is through a bank guarantee you need to negociate the amount with your own bank like a loan??. I though you sign a document with the company and that it was enough. I don’t know if my bank is going to Agree this kind of “loan”... let see... |

It's called a promissory note and means the amount payable depends upon set conditions. Usually, you will need some form of asset (house) or the money in the account before they will provide one.

Word is they do not have a pilot shortage. They apparently have enough pilots in their "pool" to staff another four months worth of OCCs. But hiring is slowing down and the upgrade for this late summer is cancelled. Six 787s are being leased out, and three deliveries have been deferred. So basically things are now at a standstill with Norwegian long haul.

No, the change to orders are nothing to do with crew shortages.

I thought NEOs were always planned for 2019? |

Today... i love the way the marketing men sell it. As a pilot, you can fly anywhere. If the company fails, you will get another job. Who’s really interested in ‘new a/c and load factors ? ’new deal’ ? Really ? Looks like the lowest paid long haul 787 job anywhere in the world ? £5500 take home for a 787 skipper in U.K. with 28 days leave ? am I missing something ? |
That translates to £95k before tax annual salary according to my calcs. There was a guy here saying as a year 1 CPT he earned £128k.
