Hopefully by then I will see the flying pay appear on the payslips. Do you need to have worked a year for this average annual earnings to calculate? Or will it make a forecast based on basic salary and projected flying pay?
I have already put the feelers out to lenders with my contract offer letter and many aren’t interested in lending more than what they calculate off the basic salary, or can’t grasp the collective agreement idea. If anybody has experienced this, or has also attempted purchasing a property soon after joining, I would love to hear from them! Your best bet is honestly to use a broker who understands the complexities of our pay structure and will have access to a wider selection of lenders, often with better rates and should be able to increase your borrowing power if that’s what you’re after. Pm me if you want the details of a pilot in BA who can help. |
If anyone has an upcoming sim assessment (like me) and would like to coordinate some Airbus practice in the Gatwick area, please PM me; I have some box options.

What was agreed re pay rises over the next 2-3 years? Is it correct there are biannual increases? If anyone is willing to share the % I’d be much obliged.
What’s the general consensus on pay at BA now Virgin and EasyJet have secured such a significant increase? |
If you work on 2.5% per year until January 2027 you won’t be too far wrong.
|
What are shorthaul rosters like? Are they fixed pattern days on and off or random each month?

(If not, I truly despair. Read the thread. Use the search function. This has been discussed multiple times recently, let alone countless times over the history of this thread) Unless by some miracle you got a US green card and an offer from Delta, just take BA. I suspect these are all teenagers trying to decide which MPL scheme to drop £100k of their parents money on. |
A320 headsets
Hi, are you able to use your own headsets on the A320s? Or are there ones already in the aircraft you have to use?
|
I’ve read the threads but still would like to ask - on the SH 320 fleet, roughly how many flying hours per year do you end up with, and how much time sitting between flights in the T5 crew lounge is normal?

T5 crew lounge? Doesn’t exist. Not airside anyway. Sitting around time (usually at a coffee shop) varies considerably depending on what type of trips you do. An hour or two spare time between flights is common.

You can use your own (approved types only) or those in the aircraft.

Are people really factoring in what type of headsets are in use when deciding on their career options?

As someone who has never owned a headset I would like to see what I’ll be potentially using. |
Good morning guys.
