I’m not one for conspiracy theories but any chance the upper echelons of DGPERS are any factor? I find it outrageous the RAAF is going behind people’s back who have faithfully served out their ROSO. (Because they have atrocious personnel management) |

Possibly. One is RAAF and the other is ex-RAAF... I find it outrageous the RAAF is going behind people’s back who have faithfully served out their ROSO. (Because they have atrocious personnel management) |

There are other externals who have been on hold since October 17 and were initially told possible start March 18. Now that courses are filled until Feb It'll be at least March 19...
|
I flew with a management guy recently who said they need 300 pilots next year, 200 retirements through to 2021 and there will be expansion with more routes and more planes ordered. Over the long term they will prefer to take pilots from the group airlines. |
Is that 300 on top of the guys/girls they recently put on hold this year?? |
Wouldn’t think so. That would be incoming pilots. |

I’m fairly sure it is still the case based on people in the most recent courses with the exemption of internals |
Can anyone with reliable info comment on whether apps will reopen early next year? Will mins be the same or will an MCC requirement be added? Will an applicant have an equal chance regardless of being an internal/external? |

Will an applicant have an equal chance regardless of being an internal/external? For what it’s worth; 1. Maybe but probably not, was two years between current and last recruitment waves. 2. They’ll probably be similar, as a trend they’ve become less restrictive between the two recent recruitments. (Dropped academic requirements and such) 3. Don’t think it really makes a difference on an individual level. Based on the small sample I have access to I’d say that being an internal is worse, definitely have more strings attached to start date and such. Too bad QF doesn’t recognise group seniority or give guys a number once they’re on the hold file, something for the next EBAs maybe? Take it all with a truckload of salt, I don’t think HR could give you the answers you’re seeking if they wanted to, let alone random pilots on a rumours forum. |

Over the long term they will prefer to take pilots from the group airlines. 2019- 20 2020- 21 2021- 35 2022- 51 2023- 50 2024- 59 2025- 65 2026- 83 2027- 83 2028- 79 2029- 70 2030- 79 Of course many more may retire before 65 and no doubt a number of 744 pilots are likely to go when that fleet goes and distort the numbers over the next couple of years. |
The company is working on 62 average age for retirement. Personally I think it’s closer to 60 then you add in medical retirements as well which will increase the numbers. Lastly, when direct flights start between the east coast of Australia and New York plus London and other parts of Europe these are only available for airlines of the country of origin and destination cutting out fifth and sixth freedom carriers like Emerates and Singair. IMO Qantas will grow very quickly and hence the requirement for lots more pilots. |
Impressive AIPA can come up with a breakdown like that. I know its only a rough guide - but at what seniority numbers does each rank start at present (ie WB commands start at 800, WB FO's at 1600, etc etc)?
Curious to see the expected progression, given the historically slow rate at QF. |
Command East coast wide body- 740 West coast wide body- 850 Adelaide 737- 1400 Perth 737- 1400 MEL 737- 1300 SYD 737- 1000 BNE 737- 1050 F/O PER 787- 1500 PER A330- 1650 737 PER, ADL- 2470... essentially next vacancies after you join if you have a bid in. SYD/ MEL- Next Training year after you join. BNE- 2150 Bottom seniority as at 31 Jul 18 is 2533. Probably 40ish joiners since then. |

Say someone was hired as an S/O today, what would a realistic time frame be at least for the east coast 737 F/O bases? I know Perth is fairly low but what about the East Coast? Thanks in Advance |
Also bear in mind that external factors and Group restructuring drastically affect progression rates, so they’re very hard to predict with much certainty. The creation of Jetstar with a separate pilot workforce added 8 years. The GFC added 3. The collapse of Ansett offset 9/11. |

Has anyone received emails recently from the recruitment team to either proceed to medical stage or hold file status?
