FOs and general aviation in RUSSIA
Hey,
I hope this finds everyone well and healthy during these troubled times.
I have a few questions regarding some aspects of the Russian flight deck sector, and I am having quite a hard time finding this information on the internet with my limited skills of Russian.
Can somebody please shed some light on the situation of foreign (= no Russian citizenship) first officers in Russia? I heard that they are banned by the Russian government, and most job listings have RF citizenship as a requirement. However, I haven't managed to find an official document/decree.
My second question is with regard to the general aviation market in Russia. I know that there are sightseeing flights in the North (learned about them from the crazy story of a Dutch pilot) and that there are survey operations in the Far East / Siberia. However, very little is to be found on the requirements for these jobs. Could somebody please give some insight on this matter?
