Post YOUR Info!

[atpcliff]

Hi!

I was over 1/2 way through a big post with a lot of info when my computer froze, and I lost it all. I'll post it later.

In the meantime, I would appreciate U Guys posting what U know:
Foreign airlines hiring, websites for contract pilots who fill positions overseas, specific conditions in specific countries/cities/airlines that you know about.

Here's one I found out. Viva Macau is hiring. Macau was a Portuguese controlled island off of China, similar to Hong Kong. A guy there has put $300K in the bank in two years of working there.

C U!

what kind of experience are they looking for?

I'm moving to Ireland tomorrow for a flying job. I have also been offered a job with Air Deccan in India. I just used the services of Direct Personnel and Aeroprofessional in my search. I'm going in as an ATR captain for Aer Arran in Ireland. For most these jobs you need a type rating in their aircraft and 400-500 hours in type.

Is the $500 housing, for housing in Japan or the US? Is that just to cover some crashpad expenses or are they expecting you to actually find a place to live on that? -kingaira90

 

[d328pilot]

It is for a place to stay in Japan when you are here working. Some guys get apartments near the airport or some just stay in a hotel. If you ended up doing a crash pad type of thing, you would probably have some left over.

I I know Cityjet has hired FAA ATP's with BAE 146 type.
Dont know if they give work permit or no

[Say Again Over]

Stay away from small agencies.

King Fisher and Jet Airways in india are looking for experienced pilots. The latter will hire into the left seat of a 777 based in Europe if you've got enough heavy and command time.

[Dharmesh1231]

Most of the airlines in Asia and Middle East are hiring due to tremendous expansion. As fareview said pick a carrier and Pprune it and you will find a wealth of info for all your questions. I guess it's really beneficial to have at least a 320 type or a 737 type right now.

How are you getting a JAA ATP, or do you already have it.... that is quite a proccess....

Not dreaming, not smoking. Care to tell me which carrier is not hiring without type experience (or a little)?

Click a carrier and *************** it .

Curses, foiled again. Anyway those in the know will find it.

Hi!

From my experience, ALL the Indian carriers want 500 hours in type, AND you have to have a type rating for Capt.

I believe all the 747 freighters (NOT Cathay) require time in type.
