Just a couple of questions for the DHL guys/girls out of EMA.. .What is DHL like to work for, do you get much flying and above all do you enjoy it?. .Have been looking at getting trying to get into the freight world more and more lately as for some perverse reason find it appealing!!. .How does it stack up against what I am doing at the moment...regional flying?

DHL EMA fairly chaotic, because the programme changes with arrival of new aeroplanes (2 more in pipeline next month, maybe more) and when the loads change. UK CAA will not allow us the 8 on, 6 off that the boys in Brussels (EAT) enjoy. The flying is fun and everyone keen and enthusiatic, a young company in its early stages, so it would suit you if you are flexible!

Thanks for the feedback guys, I really appreciate it.. .I was very impressed with the setup at EMA when I walked in to hand in my C.V.. .I know that it may take some time to get a foot in the door, but then hey if its worth it you gotta work at it!!. .If anyone else has any words of encouragement or discouragement...feel free!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="rolleyes.gif" />

DHL recruiting is frozen for the present time and is likely to remain so until all the Airbus and 727 pilots from ACL have had the opportunity to transfer across. Until the plan changes again, that is !!

Did hear a rumour that some of the ACL A300 might end up at DHL Air because EAT can't crew them.
Would be good news for the F/E's
