Saudi Flight Ops

[Lauderdale]

Guys,

Saudi Flight Ops - do they have an Operations/Dispatch base at LHR?

I know they were recruiting this time last year (september'ish) with positions starting at about £29K. Anyone know anything about them? Or even atttended an interview with them?

Just out of healthy curiosity off course!

Cheers

Hi Lauderdale.
PM for info

Hi Lauderdale

Would check that starting salary figure, was way below that last time I checked, but maybe they have caught up now.
Also, need an FAA licence as they operate to PCA, which is basically a carbon copy of FAA.
Also figure in working at LHR, was always too busy for me arriving by car, then busing into terminal.
They were ok to work for, but it's mainly different peeps now to my time there.

See what Dark777 has to say.

Regards Expat.

Thanks for that Expat!

I have an FAA license - guess that is what drew my attention at the time as they were making reference to it.

Guess I will just have to keep my eyes and ears open in case they open up positions again - just out of curiosty off course!

Yes Saudi Airlines Accept FAA and no need to conver it ... later if u got the job they give u PCA lisence based on FAA .... both are the same ....
