Thanks telnadi, any idea about their fleet size, pay, working conditions....etc

[mutt]

working conditions

Considering that they havent flown yet, it might be hard finding someone to answer that question. It would also help if you said which position you were seeking.....

Their paint scheme looks awesome on the website, I wonder if the aircraft will be as good.

Unusual to be starting an airline with older aircraft that will cost a fortune to run. Still if carriers are shedding them for next to nothing then there are bargins to be had.

I hope it's not being put together by a bunch of people from failed carriers that have ripped off everyone apart from themselves.

Agreed, love the logo and the slogan 'uplift the spirit' - Good luck to the new airline.

That was a before sleep question, sorry about that guys.

And mutt, I'm applying as FO, but also interested in knowing the conditions of the Captains, since I know some Captains interested.

Chief Pilot is a stand up character who has spent some considerable time in the kingdom previously.

Personally I think they will do much better than the previous attempts such as Al Wafeer. Better planned, better aircraft.

Nope, this is a good bunch, or so it appears......

Chief Pilot is a stand up character

I will second that opinion

They have great plans, based on religious travel, so I'm sure that they will be hiring crews for some time to come.

Didn't Alwafeer just try this and fail? I hope it works.


Sorry IHD, I saw your comment after I made the posting

[mutt]

Yes they did......however they upset the hand that fed them, nothing to do with the business model.

Try t send application to [email protected] but fail..

[fruitninja2012]

Did they get any airplane yet?

[mutt]

Rumor is that they will fly first half feb...... so would expect an aircraft soon.

Word is that they leased S2-AFD from GMG Bangladesh.

[NG ExPat]

They haven't leased anything yet. Once again JimmyJetDriver is showing his total lack of knowledge!! They are now saying they may have a couple of 75's by mid to late April. They still do not have an Aircraft Operating Certificate, nor do they have approval for an Sim Training. That approval may come sometime next week.
