Qualifications & Experience
Requirements for the Position of Direct Entry Captain B777
A minimum of 7000 hours total flying time.
A minimum of 3000 hours command time on multi-crew, multi-engine commercial jet aircraft with MTOW of 50 tonnes or more.
Currently type-rated as a commander on an aircraft such as B737, A320 (or larger) and have flown at least 150 hours in command in the 12 months before joining Emirates.
We do not accept simulator time for any flying hour’s calculation.
In addition candidates will require:
Significant wide body aircraft and long haul experience.
A valid ICAO ATPL with an unrestricted class one medical certificate.
ICAO English level 5 English language proficiency.
It will be interesting to see how they match up those requirements, unless they're willing for the wide body and long haul stuff to be WAY out of date i.e. a long time before they got their commands in smaller aircraft.
