MD11

They gonna want an F/E's?

You may say the MD 11 is a two crew affair but Gemini seem to have three on there's.

And while we are on the subject of F/E jobs.........what will happen to EAT 727 F/E,s when the aircraft finally goes?

Are they being trained on the A300?
If so does anyone know if or when EAT are running a type course as there are a lot of out of work ACL guys still looking to get back in the sky.

At the time of redundancy in January, various efforts were made to try and get employment for ACL guys with a promise that when a course on the bus is run, they will be given a chance.

Inge Van Betts in EAT personnel has given little away, but hinted recently that August may be a time for recruitment.

Any info greatly received.

3-Man MD11

Might be wrong, wouldn't be the first time, but aren't you required to have a relief pilot on +8 hour flights? There is no F/E station on the MD11, presumeably the 3rd guy is the relief pilot, or wot?

World Airways certainly operate their MD11s with a three pilot crew on long sectors.
