Good evening folks,
Just a quick question, I am very quickly nearing the 2000Jet 4000Total required to apply to EK (non Boeing or Airbus rated) so I figure it may be a long wait.
I was wondering do you have to be currently flying a jet Type before joining EK, or does simply having the time on a jet qualify.
The reason I ask is a command on a Turboprop with my current operator may well be available well before an assessment/ job offer with EK should I be successful and I'd quite fancy a command for a bit I think (subject to passing the command course of course!)
I am wondering what the rules are in the Middle East with regard to flying a 777/330 from a TP as I know British Airways state you need to be current on a jet type before you qualify for the long haul fleet.
Thanks for your input......
