A340 drivers for THY.
THY is asking for A340 cpt's, and many of us (ex. Olympic 340 drivers) received "invitations" to participate in the recruiting.
Money is good, something like 15171 TL (7,5K euro's) net, plus 1k euros, for home rent allowance if not staying in an hotel provided for free by the Company (5*).
Initial contract for one (a) year, 3 weeks "on", 1 week "off", with 75 hours per month.
Loss of license insurance provided, as medical plan also.
They are expecting, A340 currency, 11k total hours, 1000 on type plus 500 wide, or 1500 on type minimum.
JAA/FAA/ICAO ATPL, plus english 5 or 6 level.
Not yet passed the interview. In a few days will inform everybody for this procedure.
Till now, first day is an interview with HR, chief pilots stc. About 10 persons.
Then, 30 questions ..Read the "technical interview for pilots"....
A sim on the 340 (I had being informed that due to lack of such a sim, they are using 320 sim, but I am not sure about this info...).
I dont know, the total number of pilots they want. From OLYMPIC AIRLINES, about 35 - 40 are interested to participate in the "procedure".
Actually, many are "asking" how Turks and Greeks can work together in a cockpit.
I can assure you, that both "sides" have NO problem at all.
Turks and Greeks, have the same mentality.
Personally, I look forward to join (if lucky) THY, and if selected.
Good luck to everybody willing to join THY.
