They told me that it was for more than one customer in the Middle East and Asia. They are contractually obliged not to state who the company is until an interview was awarded.


But yes, better Ts and Cs than others are offfering, including the PARC contract with KAL which has always been quite lucrative. A (good) sign of the times and the impending pilot shortage.

I always wonder why they do not want to tell you the airline. Of course, I know, they are contractually obliged. But me as an interested person, the only thing to decide yes or no is the name of the airline...

Like you Dani the thing that swings the job in my direction is who the airline is. Having e-mailed Pilots Direct and sent the required forms back I've been told that once my details are checked and if called forward for an interview then, and only then will they divulge the all important name. Its whoever operates A320's, 330's and 340's as flag carriers in Asia and the Middle East......might narrow it down a tiny bit!!

Must be Qatar Airways.

Similar requirements and also using the same wordings. See the career section on the qatar website.


cheers

Sounds a bit 'dodgy' that an A320 pilot gets paid the same as an A340 pilot, how many airlines operate the 319/320/321/330/340, somehow I do not think that many :)

The info I've had back confirms that it is for Qatar :hmm:
