Linear tax, 19%, Poland - health and social insurance

I am an English airline pilot,just started flying out of Poland.

My base is Poland and will live there for more than 183 days per year,so will be resident in Poland.

I notice there are several different tax systems in Poland.....General tax,Linear Tax and Flat tax.

I don't wish to contribute to ZUS pension but am happy to pay any mandatory health and social insurances.

Does anyone know whether I can register myself as a small company in Poland and nominate to pay 19% Linear Tax plus medical and social insurances. Or is there a better system?

Thanks

No, you have to pay medical, pension and one other ZUS (I pay it but can't remember what it is). The three together are about 850zl net (i.e. 1,050-ish zl gross), the medical is about 300 and the pension about 700-ish. The other problem is that you may well have to start adding VAT to your invoices.
