Which company is it that you describe?

:bored:

I can't stop thinking about the good job every ATC have done around euroland to keep getting good wages compared to those of pilots.

Cheers to them for the nice job they did on holding to their T&C's!!!

It s normal, nobody pay to do an ATC job !:hmm:

don´t say it too loud, you might give ideas:E

I fear that our airline pilot profession is dead.

Has been killed off by that 'Cee U Next Tuesday' o'leary at Ruinair, and SleasyJet are slowly jumping onto the bandwagon.

Nobody pays to do ATC because there's not even the chance to do so...

I also think that Airline Pilot profession is a dead one, no doubt about it. Unfortunately.

Probably in the near future I will have to switch career, it's starting to get uncomfortable.

As for the topic title, myself:

Light/Medium TP Captain, working 28 on/off, €4500 a month, allowances on the 28 days on-field are circa €900.

Cheers.

Belgian flag carrier. In my third year as an F/O on an AVRO Jet. Average 60 to 70 hours a month. Workload is high and rostering is crap unless you know the right people, 7 days on, 3 days off.

Net pay 2000€/month. Allowances 75€/night stop, 10€ per block hour, average 800-900€ euro/month on annual average.

Other benefits: hospitalisation insurance, loss of licence insurance, golden handshake at retirement, vacation pay 1500€/year.

:ok:Furloughed: a whopping $1500/month (unemployment from goverment), Oh how I love this profession so very much..hehehehe

Ryanair ,captain 8 years, 5 on 4 off basic pay net £5900 and sector pay of between £1600 and £2400. In July and August working a few days off, last year pulled in sector pay of £3500, superb pay, and none of the line traing crap either.:ok:

Wow 23 and FO on the 380
 

Brad380 seriously congratulations on being in the right seat of the A380.

Just out of interest what is your flying back ground?

Myself 2nd year 73 FO UK company £2900 take home flew 450hrs over the past 12 months

:ok:

Pilot999, you must be working for a different Ryanair.

£5900 basic pay net? So your basic UK salary is in the region of £120,000? plus sector pay on top? Are you a base Capt or Management?

Normal Ryanair Line Capt salary uk is around £55,000 plus sector pay (£3500 net a month basic plus sector pay) + bring your own tea bags and bin liner to work (not joking folks).

Brookfield is somewhere in the region of 125 Euro/hr gross + no benefits.

A320 FO, South China Sea. £1300/month including allowances for 85h, 10-14 off/month + 28 days leave. Limited health cover.

Apparently it's a very good salary here but when I go "home" it's barely pocket change...

S.

So called "legacy carrier" in good old EU:
4yr FO A330/340
approx 6000€ after tax
excl. away from homebase bits (~800€ plus)
incl. ~1000€ training extras
pension scheme ok, paid by company
lots of flying tough...
...upgrade? to business class? wow... :zzz:

Ryanair Brookfield contract
 

Hi Guys.
Looking for info on the Ryanair Brookfield contract, preferably from a Captain. Interested in the reality of it. ie. How many hours flown over the year. How much work in the winter. Tax etc.
Please PM me if you can help.
Thanks

GHANDOU

Talk with your Doctor first. If you tell this in a psycometric test you will fail.

When I was 29 I was given the chance to take over my father`s company.I refused because I had been recently promoted to Captain and I wanted to be a pilot.It was the career I chosed.

Well , It was the stupidiest decision I ever took.The guy which stayed with my father`s company is rich ,sleeping at home every night and I`m flying in Africa, on my 7th job , far from my family.

Not all pilots fly for the major companies.Pilots are like soccer players. There are just a very few who make nice money.

God Bless you

C-212-200 are you working for Zimex ?

Hi. I was looking at the pay rates posted by pilots and saw a post on page 39 by BradA380 (Emirates, as he is based in Dubai, only A380 company in this part of the world, with a registration date of Feb 2010 for PPRune). I'm not sure what his agenda is (he might be a management person talking up the possibilities with the company), or an inflated idea of himself, but a everything he wrote is incorrect.
He isn't a year one F/O, nor is he 23.
He most certainly is not earning the money he says he is.
If he is a pilot at EK, then his standard leave per year is 42 days, which is 6 weeks, not 8. Pay for vacation used to be standard, now it isn't. Days leave are often used to meet the legal requirement for days off in a month.
There are no direct entry F/O's on the A380 - I believe the minimum experience is two years with the company, of which all must be on the A330/340 fleet - that doesn't mean you get to the A380, only that you qualify to bid for it.
If he is a local (UAE national), then he might be 23 - but still not eligible for the A380 due to experience level. The locals are on a very different pay and benefits package to expatriate pilots.
To apply to EK you would need a minimum of 4,000 hours jet time, so you can calculate his possible minimum age from that.
The pay of an F/O at Emirates, is the same for all fleets - A330/340, B777, and A380. I believe it is approximately 25K UAE dirhams, which is approximately 5K EUro, $6800 or a little over £4K. From that, his pension contribution (there are many rumours about this, but it is similar to most companies except the choices are very limited), medical costs (if he has a family), and utility costs, if he exceeds the limit allowed, are deducted.
His medical benefits are restricted - covered 100% for most treatment in Dubai, but not elsewhere - and you may need or wish to go elsewhere (this can be quite a shocker as many have been left with substantial bills due to medical treatment).
Much of the information above is available on the EK website, or from fellow pruners.

2,275 euros net per month for 12 months + approx 900 euros for 6 months of allowances.
