Hello everybody,
First of all , I don't see the point to insult Flydubai or any other company when they require us to pay some money to go for an interview...
We are in a free world and nobody will never force you to go for it BUT the real problem I see and have seen for far too long is PILOTS ready to pay.
So if you want to insult somebody , you should target your fellow pilots accepting to do so...
Why should a company stop to do so if pilots are sending their CV and are going to the interview ?
This problem has been raised years ago by the pilot's union in my company where every training was paid by the company and nobody had never paid for a type rating...
Look what is happening in Europe for example with Ryanair , they have done it for more than 15 years and every pilot joining has to pay for his recurrent training in the simulator every 6 months , what about the command upgrade ( the trainee has to pay for his food and accommodation during the training and will be paid 90% of a full captain salary for the first 6 months on line ... etc... )
Is Ryanair short of pilots ?
So before complaining let's try to educate our fellow pilots and then the company will not find anybody accepting their conditions and then the problem will be sorted out...
