T&C are slowly coming up but many advertisements include the total package in the monthly number, and some places can be very expensive to live in, so just be carefull.
Also, the A330 contract in Singapore for Jetstar is still below average and likely not to get better any time soon. A320 guys are taking the base to get themselves wide body time (I can't argue with the strategy, but it doesn't move thing's along any quicker).
Look. . . TP, TheDominican, CptJNS. . . these guy's have been doing the contract thing for a very long time and pretty much seen it all. My personal opinion; take a little dose of wisdom from the boy's. It does look like good times ahead indeed, but be carefull.
And best of luck to those who decide to join the contract world. It's a great life, but no for everybody.
Call me crazy but oil goes only up from here. I still believe opportunity will be around. Airlines will need to shift the models a bit to work under these conditions. I feel the shortage is here and its comming on strong. but you can't sit back and think we will be flying with fuel under a $100 for long. its supply and demand.
