If you are a foreigner passport number(No ID document)

It means they aren't hiring anymore. Try somewhere else

would you care to elaborate a little bit more pilothead?

It is rumotered that copa has more first officers than captains, and though they want to expand, it seems that a lot of people arent coming. a lot of the first officers dont have the qualification to upgrade, so the company is probably waiting till they hire more captains or till more of the first officers upgrade. thats my take on the not hiring first officers

They are hiring a lot of first officers...and captains too. The vacancy is open for both.

I have some friends who went on february for FO, I went on march, and now I'm going back next week for the psychological test, and another friend is going on march 14th for the first stage.

Some other friends sent all the required documentation and still have no response from COPA.

Regards.

PS: All for FO position.

Hey mike did all your friends have jet time?? If not how many hours did they have?

No, not all of them have jet hours, and they have around 1100/1600 TT.

Even a guy from Brazil who is type rated in B737NG, did not pass the process...it doesn't matter the kind of hours you have...

Hi MikeCharlie24
 

Hi MC,
This salary for captain $103000 is gross or net ?
Thanks !

I believe I can say with a fair degree of certainty that salary quote is gross pay.

I read that in COPA salary they pay viaticos per month guarantied beside base salary and gastos de representacion. This viaticos included the Viaticos in the layovers?? Y read the new convenio colectivo and in one chapter they said that copa pay 100 usd in layovers in south america and 75 in north america or something like that in layovers but I dont know if this are included in the salary or they pay it cash on layovers like in most companies. Tks.

thanks guys.Just wanna know the real net salary for captains before
adventure myself to copa.
cheers:ok:

Is gross salary, then you have taxes.

Copa age rules
 

I was chatting with a friend , he was applying for a FO seat , he is above 40 years with more than 10000 TT and 5000 as FO in jets , He had do not recieved any mail , but from an insider from recruitment they are accepting or interviewing for the FO position pilots under 35 years old , there is not anything about age on the web site from Copa , so everybody in this forum close to or above do not waste your time , those news are real!!! von Schickfuss.

But why he apply for FO? Don't he have 1000hs in any airline, or anything like that? Maybe they make an exception, because they need captains.

COPA ask for a min of 1000 hs as captain or PiC in jet for a DEC no exception.

There are exceptions ! They are in need of captains, so they offer you a position as c, and train you if you have some 1000's of hours on type as fo.
And concerning age max for FO's...this cant be right?!
It would be official and mentioned in the requirements.
This is a rumours network, I know, but....:=, but please elaborate...

They CAN'T be desperate like some of you people keep saying. I have well over the minimums for DEC, I applied twice since October '12 and have never heard a peep from them, except the email acknowledging my application. :suspect:

Maybe this is a sign about how they run that place.:D

It is true this is a rumor forum , but many rumors beca me true , I can not reveal the source , but I can tell You The Captain number 28 in the copa seniority was mate in flying school , he is b737 Captain and instructorHe and the current administrative recruitment Manager issued me a chat , in resume it said that Copa had change it age requirements for FO under 35 ...I answer that to avoid to much expectation they have to add the age limit in their web site page as mostly of the Airlines do , he told me that he is not in charge of it but is was good to be mentioned to avoid misunderstanding , but everybody is free to believed in the post ...2 collegues went on January an still waiting ...good luck to all You applicants ! v S .
