Zoyberg,

Who said I am a man?

A start up losing two post holder in a week is rather strange don't you think.

AJA has weather crisis but never in aviation.

Remains to be seen if they will succeed AND keep their pilots happy.

Jafar - You said in your first post "these guys (as opposed to guys and gals) could not have chosen a worse time to start". I assumed only a man could come out with such an insult to womankind ;)

At a strategic level good business brains can read across from one industry to another.As you say though we will find out for sure soon enough.

GSA - New DFO started this week.

Hope he / she/ it lasts more than a week
 
I wish them well, but as all the ME / UAE start ups, they have great ideas, and no knowledge....when the truth is preseented they react by shooting the messenger.........never mind at least there are no surprises for the experts.

Hi everybody,
I received a mail of interest from their Chief Operating Officer, it seems a good chance for me,anybody of you can give some infos about the package (someone says is better than Flydubai) and what do you think about my idea to leave an airline to join an executive company?
Here I have no chance for upgrading and a F/O life is not the maximum if you think I am 33 y.o. and 6000 hrs TT
thanks in advance

No chance of upgrading? How so?

Re. "no knowledge" & "amateur COO"

The website quotes 150 years of aviation experience in their top team.

The COO is one of the best qualified people in the aviation world...he has spent his entire working life in aviation.

Has the DFO with initials M & P gone then ?

300-600 9th Jan 2009 14:08

Job Hunter - check your PMs.

King Chav...are you talking obout DFO or someone higher up ?

King Chav 9th Jan 2009 14:34

DFO is what I is talking aboot

Babylon

- "150 years experience?" - Look at the names on the latest website...add the combined experience up (as I suspect you know them all) and it comes to 150 years.

- In the UK it is not uncommon to leave education after doing A levels at 18 (40 - 18 = 22 years of experience).

- He did not get the title Dr by sticking a bid in on e-bay....and I think if you look at what he lectures on at the local uni you might find he has something to bring to the party.

We all know a number of pilots who have made the transition to be very good COOs...but it is certainly not a prerequisite. Sometimes highly competent pilots are promoted to a position that requires very different skills to their day job...and they just don't cut it.

You do not have to be able to sail through an LPC to project manage start up of a new airline.

Tin hat on.

Anyone know where Karim went ?

united 12th Jan 2009 15:33

a friend of mine go through the interview and the package of the cabin crew is average with most of the top charter companies in dxb. everything went quiet until she was informed that her application was unsuccessful this time :hmm::hmm: Fortunately she had not submitted her notice yet... anybody has any idea what's really happening?? heard most of the management is from amiri flight.

bee s 12th Jan 2009 15:48

can someone point me in the direction of where to apply for al jaber?

thanks!

godofrock 12th Jan 2009 19:15

DC9-32, From what I hear, no one cares where he's gone as long as it is far far away. That guy has got such a bad name for himself and word is spreading, and not just in the UAE.

godofrock 12th Jan 2009 19:27

Hey Babylon. Did you ever get planning permission to install that
1.2m diameter satellite dish to side of your dwelling house???:=

potters tiger 13th Jan 2009 06:40

Bee S. They have a pretty nice website.you can put your CV on there.

Hold position 13th Jan 2009 10:58

Website ?
 
It’s interesting to see they still don’t have a VPO on there website? Wonder why? I thought they already replaced the resigned VPO? its funny to see an airline management line up with not a single pilot in sight , may be they don’t need any?http://static.pprune.org/images/icons/46.gif.

bee s 13th Jan 2009 11:51

i cant only find their main website but no link to an aviation website. can you provide a link?
