Eaglejet on Morocco

[The mole]

Does anybody have any experience (good or bad) of eaglejet and ther B737 hours building in Morocco?

I have a couple of friends who have been down that route and they haven't had much good to say about it. Sure, the company (RoyalAirMaroc / Atlas Blue) treated them OK. But everything else have been pretty much chaotic.
Unless you want to get ripped off on living expenses, you'll just have to settle for cochroach infested and crappy appartments while you're there.
If you don't get ripped off by the land-lord, less morally-minded thugs in the streets will take care of you, once you leave your house.
Muggings 'en masse', as I've understood it!

This is not what I've been through, but what I've heard from people that have been there, on the Eaglejet program, so you will have to take it for what it is. Their words, not mine.

Anyone know about the flying side of it - how long etc etc?

[muffan]

So are there any pilots down there know in marocco... how could shed some light over the situation....how many months does it take to go through the 300h program..

Good morning,

Eaglejet pilots are only with RAM, not Atlas Blue.
Many RAM pilots are not too happy to see them, but management has offered them a permanent position after their Eaglejet flying.
We will see if the RAM pilots will go on strike as they have threatened...

All I know. Sorry not to answer your questions.

cheers IP

Sorry, they are not offer a permanent position as far as I know as you have to have the citizenship and also coming from their own academy, the best you can have is only a year contract eventually renewable but what I heart is that all have declined the offer because they have found a job in Europe, to be verified.

The best will be the comments coming from a pilot who did the program there.

Cheers.

Well I havent been through the program with RAM but I have had my share of problems with EagleJet.
My tip to you, stay away. Whatever is going on with them is corrupted and probebly illeegal. Id suggest you do ANYTHING you can before you go along with them.
I have been burned and therfore I find it in place to "warn" others.
Forget about the whole concept that it is wrong to pay for these services, thats the way it is and better get with the program.
You reffred to a cirtin provider from across the ocean, I say stay away.

[The mole]

Thanks for the replies. Why do I always hear 'stay away'; about Eaglejet, but never any specifics?

[LOOKUP]

Cause its a small industry ...

You really don't need to go through eaglejet these days. Almost all operators are looking for TR 737 pilots, even with 0hrs on type.

Try Air Baltic for instance.
