Smiling Monkey. I am sure that guy in India with 13500 hours will soon claim the necessary 15000 AND whatever type rating is desired! But he will need to up his age to 35 to have any credibility.......harrumph.
In one middle eastern country where I worked, jail time was mandatory for pilots who got caught with falsified qualifications. I successfully had one such person who gave us a heap of grief locked up for a short time. India needs this law to be enforced to take these characters out of the industry. If Tiger really are bringing in 15000 hour DECs over the top of existing experienced F/Os it will guarantee two things: 1. Resentment from F/Os who have put in a few years already 2. When they realise that there is no career to be had there, F/Os will seek greener pastures. What a great atmosphere for morale, safety and stability. |
Yes, I hear that the Parker Pen Company does a roaring trade in refills throughout India.

Parker pen pilot hours...oh, oh, oh you guys must be making fun of brig. Gen patricia halfback of " swiss air/crosshair " fame now holed up in incheon! Not nice, you know because he is such a nice volunteer boyscout! Guys can even get alteon instructors' sim check operating notes from him, small wonder so many newbies ace all the sim checks at jungseok building next ti inha hospital !
|
It doesn't really matter if its 15000 hours or 25000 hours, why does anyone care? Still crap conditions, thus let them do what they like, I have no idea why anyone would get worked up over it, bring it, I say...
|
Three words
SUPPLY AND DEMAND. Nothing more, nothing less. :ok: |
wow aofa. bring it? this from a pilot with a number on possibly the most heavily defended and entrenched seniority list in the region?
if you were a capable fo at tiger good chk history and kept your nose clean i doubt youd be feelin the love 38? dont get too cozy mate, there arent too many jobs for life left in aviation. |
Who said Tiger needs to make a profit to be of benefit to the Virgin group..
|
Damn!! 22,000 hours but only 2,000 in command of the Airbus.
|
Word is that Tigerair advertised for high time pilots to supplement their choice of check and training options and that they are talking to a significant number of interested people. I guess if you have been flying for 30 years you're going to have at least 15000 hours and if you want to come home after a dose of sand where else is there.
Makes sense. And surely these high time guys won't stop any F/O from being upgraded especially given their expansion plans. From my perspective I would rather have my family on a plane with experienced pilots who know what they are doing. |
I can understand these requirements especially the ex-AN bit- as opposed to recruiting a poorly trained, bogan Australian pilot who had to pay for his endorsement. :8

Fishin's not so good in this pond Gnads :=

Truth hurts Ken. You're at regulatory minimums or Egyptian standards from what I hear of low cost flying operations in Australia.
|
Post #32 Love it :D
|
Me too :ok:

"bogan Australian pilot who had to pay for his endorsement."
Love it. So true. The LCC/low wage model has certainly opened up to a new cadre of bogans and male models....... |
as opposed to recruiting a poorly trained, bogan Australian pilot who had to pay for his endorsement. Thankfully they've not tried to export this inferior product yet. |
So did any "Astronauts" take the bait? :rolleyes:
|
DEC never seems to work.
I've seen it destroy companies. It's usually a result of the attitudes of the DECs rather than the quality of the company. Also a bit of a slap in the face for the training department not producing upgradable FOs. |
