Do you know when the start dates are for those who got the call - this is good news as it will undoubtedly create movement so we can all start moving up the chain??

beechbum 8th Oct 2010 15:34

Most to start on the 1st of November and others with 2/3 months notice period thereafter!!

"Worlds most awesome airline" I beg to differ. Awesome that they are still operating! In years gone by it was but now who knows??

Oldaircrew 9th Oct 2010 02:24

Mile hi and no fault,

At the moment it is the worlds most awesome airline. I was there and am now out in the big world and believe me, SAA is far ahead of the rest of the industry wrt the way they treat their cockpit crew. SAA is stuck in the dark ages that way and long may it last!! Good luck to all those joining.

You have got to be joking. Right? http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...milies/eek.gif

In days gone by, yes, a great place to work. But by no means a "major" in ANY way, means or form. Today, just another African airline.

Sorry. It's the truth.
SAA ------> The best flying job in SA, possibly in the world :D

Superbly trained.
Waited on by attentive staff.
Over paid.
Under worked.
Live in Africa.

Good luck boys! It's got to be the best airline job in the world.

Hi everybody!! Can anyone tell me where to apply? what are the minimum requirements?

Thanx in advance

Ghost_Rider737 12th Oct 2010 08:47

Give your CV (preferably) to a pilot in the Airline. He/She will drop it in the right box !

Thats what I did.....

The careers link on the website is not very up to date !

Flyer14 16th Oct 2010 21:23

I know who you speak of. Far as I know he's staying at Tiger.

Btw, I've heard SAA closed down or are closing down the DBN base. Is this true?

millertime 17th Oct 2010 07:00

It's always the half truths that do the damage in this forum.

The "little oke from Lanseria" ferries the Flying Lions Harvards, has never done a single SAA formo display (actually it would be illegal) and he PAID for an A320 rating at market rates. Even with the A320 rating he did not have enough points to be called for an interview and is flying for Tiger in Singapore.

Sometimes, my man, the world is not as twisted and corrupt as we make out, and sometimes things are done properly. Keep well.

Oh and by the way I am not him or his father. I just hate seeing someone slandered with half truths.

Hmm, TT. I seem to detect vestiges of green, old chap! :}

tuirbo tim.........get a life!

divinehover 18th Oct 2010 16:48

Underworked? I better buy some sweats for the roster queen then. I'm obviously doing something wrong.

Ghost_Rider737 18th Oct 2010 17:34

I must admit we definately not underworked !:=

i-Robot 18th Oct 2010 19:14

What's the interview like?

Shrike200 19th Oct 2010 19:43

It's like masturbating with a cheese grater...slightly amusing....but mostly painful.

Sorry, but Ford's the man and it seemed appropriate. What's any interview like? :)
