Hey Cameltoad,
Yes a lenghty post, but I and maybe some others watching this thread appreciate it.
The guys Ive talked to have commented on the local pilots too. They use two Capts and two FOs each flight, but the Expats are always PIC. The local Capts are probably classed only as cruise Capts (and may well be for the remainder of their career by the sounds). There are local Capt with different designations that are rostered as PIC on their flights.
I would hope they wouldnt fail you on the medical simply because they dont like you. I would much rather been told im unsuitable for the position rather than subjected to medical screening as Cameltoad was, and then failed.
Cameltoad BTW What airline did you apply for with all the ridiculous medical checks. You could PM if you dont wish to post here.
So I can avoid applying to them.
Cheers
