Interesting read. The problem is that the both the catchment area (Emiratis) and recruitment pool (suitably qualified Emiratis) are quite limited. i.e. How do you entice a 20+ yr old Emirati into a job that offers anti social, non family hours and that also requires a fair amount of hard work especially when the average intake to the student pool has approximately 3,000,000 Dhs in his current account! Plenty of Omanis willing to take the plunge but they are not Emiratis. I seriously doubt that the GCAA will ever be able to recruit enough Emiratis to ever completely staff the ACC, especially when one considers the generous retirement packages available to locals.
The GCAA in its ANS/ATM Dept is a better place now since the demise of the "Gruesome Twosome" but the HR Dept is not a help to meaningful recruitment.
Regards to AAJ aka Executive Director.
Cheers
To infinity and beyond and, hopefully, back in time for tea.

However, back in the real world, applications for the Emiratee promotions far outstrip the number of positions available.
Verci at some point you are going to have to accept that you`ve been away from this part of the world for just a little too long.
Did you ever work at DXB?

As per the article I was referring to GCAA recruiting not Dubai.
I would posit the theory that both GCAA and Dubai exist in an alternate Universe.

You'd think that with all the negative aspects mentioned there would be vacancies by the camel load but alas, nothing to that effect.
I guess money soothes.

I'm interested to know what the (general) feeling on the new facility at Jebel Ali?
Now we just need to transition on to our new equipment, and get three RANBI-gates. Good times indeed.

I hear the unofficial official line is late July, 2 Ranbi gates as well as independant DB and SJ gates inbound. Certainly a great move for all concerned.
Quoted the wrong person, meant to quote Short Approach on the 3 airways. Two might be possible but without Bahrain's approval you will never have 3.

SINGU is a different subject altogether. Three seperate RNAV1 airways coming out of DB would necessitate three RNAV1 airways into Bahrain. No point in having three outbound routes that congregate at one point again. Add the overflyers and Abu Dhabi and the whole thing becomes a mess. Whether the bottleneck is caused by Bahrain or UAE is a moot point. There is a bottleneck, period.
If DB can get three outbound routes then surely AA can get two as well. There simply isn't enough real estate to accomodate all these routes. Activate OMD22 and that's the end of that fairy tale.

I think it great! And generally the feeling I get from everyone is appreciation for the easy access, decent rest-facilities, plenty of space, canteen and so on.

Last time I was Dubai was as Chairman of an examination board concerning locals doing their first aerodrome ATC Rating.
Check my cv, should you wish!

Still unable to give a straight answer, attempting to deceive by telling half -truths.
Same old Verci.
I once traveled thru Dubai airport, and I was working at the time, so does that mean I worked Dubai approach as an air traffic controller?

Who gives a toss. Dubai has doubled movements since either of you worked here. Unfortunately for ferris he still catches the **** we throw with less resources.
Speaking of pints, I miss the days on course on the gas Costanza.
