Jetstar International Boot Camp.
Hot off the press.......
About 60 people called for stage 1 so far and all will be required to pay around $40,000 for the 330 rating. (i.e. no rated/ airbus experienced people in this group) Standards and Training depts to be made up of a mix from QF and J*. If current J* (non-management) 320 pilots wish to apply for International, training costs to be met by the pilot. Pay scale; 330 Capt $140K fixed, F/O $75K. Launch date Sept 2006. Don"t shoot the messenger.:) |
Rishworth also advertising for A330 crew to be based in Australia.
Bet there will be a swag of Aussies at EK that'll come home. |
Wow, why would you bother - long haul cabin crew can make up to $100000. All the responsibility without fair remuneration.
|
The pay quoted won`t attract EK pilots
|
No, but a life back in Australia would!
|
Might attract some DJ drivers seeking a break from current lot...:)
|
Might attract some ex-DJ EK drivers already pissed off with life in the sandpit and regretting their move after being cluster-shafted by the pommy management in Dubai.
So why buy a 330 rating when in a couple of years you'll need to buy a 787 rating?? Or am I missing something obvious......... |
Games
Could it just be GoD playing his little games...:} :} :} :} :hmm:
|
No, surely management wouldn't take that line Mud Skipper - if they tell is the sky is falling, then it really MUST be falling... :yuk: :{ :mad:
|
The snotmeister raises a good point. If you are not already rated then you need to fork out roughly 50-60% of your first years take home pay to get the job. Only to be told that after 18 months that you either need to pay for a 787 rating or ta ta...
Anyone getting the job WITH a rating would be in a similiar position after the A330's time is up. Will be interesting to see what sort of desperado is going to apply? |
$40,000 X 60 = a healthy bottom line start up cost!:ok:
Some guy on G.A D&G reports that he is 37yrs, 4300hrs (2300 rotary) and has a stage 1 call up. So what happened to all the Aussie; EK, Dragon, Vietnam, Asiana, SilkAir, Brunei, China Air, Air Malta etc, etc Airbus guys (plus the 100s of other non-Airbus, but Jet rated) who applied??:suspect: Interesting selection process. UNOME, do you know how many 330s are going to International? |
Qantas is transfering the four 200's and I've heard they want another two 330's on external lease.
Which games are about to start down in Melbourne:confused: |
E.P.
That rotary bloke must know 5 people in the company!!! Makes all the difference between 'suitable' and 'non suitable' according to 21st Century QF pilot recruitment doctrine. Blue-Foot |

Pathetic! A new One* low. Why would u bother?:yuk:

Can anybody confirm this for a wide body long haul. I here that the QF sub 'Australian Airlines' allowances do not make you money like the good old days, (still QF) I presume that Jet* Intl will be the same. Do you think they will be flogged like the Jet* (aus) Brisbane crews are? Now comparing to DJ’s approx $30k fees for job to J* $40k fees for job, (thats after you pay for the interview) how much to DJ’s pilots make? |

Made the decision not to (attempt to) join, though I am interested in where the bases will be.
Anyone? |
:yuk: Crap deal....all for less money than you can make in a place more than half as good, and yet they'll be lining up to part with their cash:hmm:

Might consider ordering 300 of these. http://www.usabodybags.com/images/bags.jpg Wonder which manager will accept responsibility. :uhoh: |
Oh the dramatics you blokes would be better on the stage or flower arranging than flying aircraft. 16 years ago we heard about the imminent crashes and the requirement for these body bags because all you blokes were useless and when Virgin and Impulse started the same calls were made and now we have to listen to Jetstar international's certain crash.Any wonder people treat you guys with the contempt you deserve.
|
So the idea of Mainline guys being ablt to transfer across to J* seems very unlikely then.
eg. S/o making say $100'000/yr, wants faster upgrade. But the upgrade will cost them $$ abd also take a huge paycut. I dont think so. the same applies for f/o's who want a faster upgrade to command. Not saying that people wont do it but i think the majority will look at whats on offer and have to have a big think before moving out of mainline. Doesnt the richworth or whatever it is also take a % of your pay if u gain employment thru their services?? Thats fantastic!!! Paying for the endorsement (if required, i know the ad says typed people, but hypothetically speaking) and then have ya pay docked from the agency :suspect: |
Well, it didn't take long for the mud to start flying did it, children?:suspect:
Y'all keep screwing threads up (pun) - We'll keep closing or deleting them.:cool: Your choice, kiddies:E Woomera (Eastern States) |
