As stated on the website, we will have a monthly pay of 6000 dirhams. When i lived in Dubai, my salary was about 9000 dirhams and since my accomodation was also provided i was doing well. It's perfectly possible and confrotable to live on 6000 dirhams. And probably in Al Ain its even more confortable since Dubai has gotten really expensive.

Medical

Anyone know what the visual requirement is?

Have anyone been invited without having the Class 1 Medical?

Hi SAS,

They're going to assess medical and dental after the first round or two. I'm not sure when exactly, but they don't require you to have it done beforehand. Class 1 Medical is not required, but a bonus. They want people with no or very little experience. As an example, CPL holders are disqualified.

I think vision requirements will be as usual, a few +/- is ok, provided you wear corrective lenses. Don't know what their limits are.

If you've applied, have you received an invite to an interview?

I just applied today, so I don't think I will get invited for the interviews in July. Hopefully there are interviews in next month or later.

I have been searching all over UAE CAA's website and I cannot find the medical requirements for Flight Crew.

Hi SAS,

Well, one guy above says he got an interview email within 24 hours. Another has received one within a week, so you never know! Keep us updated!

I imagine the health requirements are the same as any Euro CAA, though I'm not an expert, and I don't know the differences between the European CAAs' medical requirements.

GCAA's website has broken links to their medical documentation

2nd email everybody!

Ok... it says that they can't provide information about the following stages, but for information they said that we will only need to be in Frankfurt for this one session. Does that mean that they don't know where the next sessions are, or that the next sessions are not in Frankfurt?...

Well, what's important is that on the 28th we have to be at the Sheraton in Frankfurt by 08:30am (30 min earlier than 09:00am). Good thing is that the hotel is right in the airport so i might stay there.

See u guys there.

Hi all ! I've got the 2nd mail too, got to be at 9:00am at the Sheraton hotel for the FRA assessment. I'm a bit curious about what they say in the mail about timings for the next stage of the assessment, any ideas of what that could be?

I joined the facebook group too, seems like I'm the only girl...

Hey People, Just curious as to why they would not take CPL holders, wouldnt cpl holders be far easier to train to the required standards in a shorter period of time? Im suprised they did not offer a training program for people with a cpl license/MECIR similar to QANTAS's Commercial Cadet program where they already have cpl licenses. I just recently got my cpl (150Hrs CASA license) but i applied for this when I only held a PPL, The only difference between being eligable for me was a flight test. I am yet to recieve an email by the way still "under review"
From what I have read here i will have to wait to apply direct entry when i have suffice hours!
I Should not have listed my CPL document on the application, just left it as PPL

Aeromar27,

the 2nd round, if a candidate passes the first round successfully, will most probably be in AUH!
