Regional guys looking to move on...CA or FO

[rickair7777]

I know an ex-mil guy who just quite emirates to come home. He was single and didn't have a job lined up back in the states, he just got that sick of it.

I wouldn't want to take my family over there (been to ME enough to know).

Is this an open house? or do i need to register if I would like to go? I've only been to one open house, at jetblue. Suit and Tie? Anything else I should bring?

Open House....just show up....I would wear a suit and tie. You will be meeting those who will possibly be interviewing you. Bring your flight times. Also, if you have filled out the online application at www.emiratesgroupcareers.com, bring your application number. Resumes are not necessary as you will fill out an expression of interest form but you can bring them if you like.

It would be a good opportunity to explore but only if you have time above 30 tons.
that rule is still in effect.

I've been to two Emirates open houses, but alas I don't fly an a/c over 30 tonnes and am deemed unworthy ;-) No call......and I'm closing in on 7000TT with 3000 TPIC.

how much time? the emirates website doesn't show that as a min at the moment.

Varmint for the win! What an awesome reply. Thanks for the accurate rebuttal. To me Emirates is a very good opportunity because on top of very good pay you have no mortage or rent payment, which is most people's largest monthly expense. How does the other cost of living stuff (food, gas etc) compare with the US?

Sometimes fate works in fabulous ways!

Please, please, PLEASE go there. You will LOVE it! They deserve you, and you deserve them!!! It will be sooooo awesome to watch from afar!

(Fingers crossed)

Got this email today...TT8200+ PIC3000(1300[jet])

Dear Mr. (Name Remove),
Thank you for your email as well as your interest in Emirates. Although we are conducting pre-selections in Atlanta later this month, we are giving precedence to those with experience on multi-engine jet aircraft with a MTOW in excess of 30 tonnes. I do invite you to submit an on-line application on www.ekpilot.com as we do review our hiring criteria from time to time.
Yours sincerely,

Richard Cyr

The CRJ 200 has MTOW of 24 Tonnes, (Tonne = 2204.62 lbs or 1000 Kilograms) The CRJ 700 has MTOW of 34 Tonnes. Close enough. Let's go...

Went to the open house today, was told my biz jet experience that weighs 37.5 tons wasn't going to cut mustard. All because it wasn't an "airliner". oh well maybe get them next time.

I didn't know biz jets fly differently than "airliners"?!?!

Did you meet this requirement:

- A minimum of 4000 hours total flying time (may include 25% P3 or FEO time to a max of 500 hr).
- A minimum of 2000 hours multi-crew, multi-engine jet aircraft (P3 time cannot be used for this requirement).

OR: (The reduced minimums for guys with commercial aircraft experience. I guess they don't classify biz jets as commercial aircraft):

- A minimum of 2500 hours total flying time on a modern commercial multi-engine, multi-crew aircraft jet (P3 time cannot be used for this requirement).

I exceed all of these numbers.
