A lot better than they used to be. Less oil in the engines, more compressor washes, better maintenance. Still get occasional smell of smelly socks, but nothing like as bad as it used to be. I think this is a known problem on 757 and 146. Doesn't worry me unduly now - long time since I felt the need to switch off packs.

DHL have changed their name to YODEL !

Try not to giggle when they tell you.

Edit to say that I have been informed the new name only applies to the van delivery service.

THANKS for the information:ok:

Have you been called with the interview result ??
I went to the interview last week and so far no news.....

Hi Guys,
I had also the Interview EMA. I applied as a DEC and curr. Captain on B767
The interview was ok.
After 10 day´s I received a letter from DHL. I am not qualified as a First Officer.
Maybe someone has experienced the same?
Happy landings :yuk:

Taxed in UK, living in Germany.
 

What is the current situation with DHL Air UK crew who live in Germany. The double tax treaty between UK and Germany does specify where the company tax is to be paid (UK), but not so clearly the issue of living and working in Germany for a UK reg company, paying taxes in UK. National insurance and income taxes springs to mind.

We are waiting for an announcement from the company who have been working tirelessly on the matter for the last 4 years:rolleyes:

DLH air Holding Pool
 

Hi

Wondering how many Type Rated FOs are currently in the DHL (Lej) Holding Pool.

People that made the simulator assessment early this year still waiting?

Cheers

For anyone actually working/flying for EAT based in LEJ on the A300-600 I would appreciate some fresh general information for Capt position.

You probably won't get much feedback at the moment as the first a/c doesn't arrive until later this month and the existing A300s are not operating on the German register.

I start on the A300-600 in December, so please feel free to PM if I can help, but you will likely have to be patient if you are looking for info on rosters etc.

KT.
