Who is looking for B742 crews in the UK?
 
On climb to 350 there is a listing for 747-200 crews. UK residents only. No details to be found about the operator on the listing. No clues in the email address either. Anyone know who it is?

Can only think of British Global off the top of my head but no idea if that's a good answer or not.

MK Airlines - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yeah I should have mentioned in my original post that it is not MK looking, thats for sure.

helldog 11th May 2009 16:45

Right. Bringing this back to the top. The job has been posted on Climbto350.com twice more, once on the 7th of May and once on the 9th of May, anyone know who the operatior is?

Maybe Midex?

I found a listing for it on a website that has mainly American jobs. It mentions that it is a position outside the USA. That makes me think that maybe it is a US operator?

Who gives a rats-peetot, its a job for Classics.... even if you have to live in Blighty................. Can't be choosy these days, Mate! :}

Hey Kato. I already live in the UK, so thats not a problem, I just want to know more so I can follow it up. I love the classic.

WhaleDriver 12th May 2009 16:12

MIDEX is close to a new contract, UK to S. Africa, three times a week. Things change, so it may be Midex after all.

helldog 12th May 2009 17:14

Hmmmmmm. Midex hey? Good work whale driver.

For 742 crews in UK - There is always the possibility that it is Air Atlanta Iceland.
After all, they operate from Gatwick and Manchester for their pax charters.
Further, majority of their pilots are from UK, their Flight Ops Management as well.
So, they tend to favorise the UK guys.
Besides that, they operate freighters in the Middle East and South Asia.
Then... could be Air Atlanta...?

Air Atlanta
 
Why would Air Atlanta look for crews with an anonymous Email address? Don't think so. Makes no sense what so ever. A large company would do their hiring through a contract agency confidentially with details released to shortlisted candidates.

Air Atlanta does not operate out of LGW or MAN anymore on PAX charters. There are no bases in either city nor any operations offices etc, your info is very old on that part.

Majority of flightcrews are certainly not from UK nor are the Flight Ops people. Hence no UK favours to be played.

BelArgUSA 13th May 2009 08:40

My info is indeed old - I last was Air Atlanta for a few months 2005.
I had worked, again as 747 captain for them in 1993, then in Jeddah...
I lost contact since I left - Assumed it remained same, office in Crawley... etc.
Back then, the UK pilots were a large majority.

I Love Midex 13th May 2009 13:33

Of course it could be Midex. They're already circumventing regulations in the UAE (flight/duty, labour law and contracts, etc. etc. etc.)...why shouldn't they try to circumvent some more or do whatever they can to continue their shady operations?

And at least one post holder there has an aol.uk email address.

:mad:

helldog 19th May 2009 16:36

Anyone get any response from those emails? I sent my cv 2 weeks ago and have had no reply as yet.

dsp1285 22nd May 2009 20:29

Anybody with any further info on the posting re 742 crews needed in UK?
