Jobs for Flight Engineers
 

Anyone out there no of anyone or company looking for Flight Engineers?

If you find one please let me know. Even a ferry would be fine.I'm current and qualified 727 Tanx.

Have you tried Macdonalds?

At least Macdonalds pays, and one gets much more respect there.

To many future Atlantic pilots allready working there saving up to buy a razor

Razor equipped staff at AAG! Oh dear SBA, better make sure the car park lights are on!! You had better get off to Macs yourself...
I can see it..........
'Right, three pieces of bread in a Mac yeah... yeah, yeah, (drums fingers on table enthusiastically). Take away one and.......' (stops listening to anyone, and calculates productivity bonus!)
As you so eloquently stated reference another topic;
'can you not find something more useful to do with your time'
- rather than make pathetic remarks to a genuine request for information.
Baaaaaaaah!
:p

Seems my last posting has disappeared? I merely questioned the repurcussions to European based crews of this rumour.

Try looking where u put it:rolleyes: u left it under fedex thread, anything else u want me to look 4??

Ya!
Sorry Hogg, quite right!

Try EAT in Brussels.
They apparently need a ****load of crews for their A300's.

See new site for more info & pics at www.spiritoffreedom.org "HELP Keep M Flying"

You are quite right about my Macdonalds comment, and you have my unreserved apology. It was meant to be a wry comment regarding the possibility of anyone finding employment in the current market, and amongst those unfortunate souls, the FE fraternity must be in the worst position.
Having read it again myself, I have to concede that it looks as if I am taking the p***, which was not the original intention. Many of us, myself included have been in the position of looking for work in this most unstable of industries, and my best wishes go to those who are forced to seek employment in the current climate.

Now about that third piece of bread? Would anyone really notice if it was removed?

Good on ya SBA! Apology accepted. As for the third piece of bread, don't remove it..... reconstitute it!

And now back to the original topic, Swiftair might be worth a look (Spain). Seems their 27's will be around for a while yet. Don't know what their crewing situation is though. Good luck to all stagecoach drivers, and their continued quest for survival.:)

Hi Guys,

If you can work in the US, Custom Air Transport (FLL) and Express.Net (YIP) are constantly holding "current and qualified" (i.e.-SHORT) classes.

Don't know about Express, but pay at CAT isn't bad: $50.00 per hr with a 60 hr guarantee, (18 days max on per month)

They still don't treat you very nice, but in these days, a jobs a job...

SBA
 

No need to apologise to me.I've worked with the meanest, the ugliest,The Scumbags and the insane as a PFE/Stagecoach driver and I,m hard as nails. Your right though, the PFE is a dying breed and I only wish I were younger (and could afford it) to obtain the rest of my pilot rateings so that it would open some more doors.I do think that things may pick up a little this fall mainly in the freight buisiness.Does anyone have a e-mail or Fax address for Custom Air.

Custom Air Toll Free is 800 4739131...there is a toll free fax but the number escapes me at the moment...

727 Man
 

I may have found something if your current 727. Try Rishworth in NZ.

Ummmm, you could try TransAfrik. They operate B727 and L382 types but the conditions are not ideal. Gotta be better than Mac's though.....

Their main base of operations is in Luanda so be warned.

Cardinal puff
 

Bin there dun that. Luanda that is. Took a 727 Fuel tanker over, spent two months in that hell hole and never got Paid !!!! thanks to IRWIN AIR out of Jo- Burg.The Boss took off with all the money so he made out OK. Sorry Trans Afrique wont do it for me either. I'm not that desperate . Thanx for the Info though.

TransAfrik

Is this the company that had a couple of L100s shot down in Angola recently?

Engineer
 

Don,t know but there are plenty of aircraft scattered all over the country side that have been shot down, ran out of gas, overshot runways and just about anything you could imagine.Lots of spare parts if you need em:

Latest JAL FE recruitment if you are interested

Thanx Engineer
 

Allready applied for it. Thanx again .:p

Friend of mine got on at Arrow Air at MIA. Word was that new hire classes are already in progress with more classes scheduled for Aug and Sep. It was said that Arrow was expanding its DC8 fleet, requiring qualified Captains, F/Os and F/Es. Don't know what experience levels are required. :cool:

FE Jobs
 

Rishworth Aviation is looking for Current and qualified DC-8 FE's for a one year contract in Europe. Contact Robert Finch at www.rishworth.co.nz if your interested. Good Luck ! I left the DC-8 in 1995.... Bummer.

PFE JOBS
 

Have a look on Climb to 350 . DC-8 crews wanted. Current and Qualified only. Good Luck !!

Would you please watch the links to to commercial sites; PPRuNe is not here to provide free advertising. I realise that the idea behind this thread is bona fide, so I'm checking with the the top bosses if some kind of exception is going to be made. Ta and good luck.

Jobs For Us poor and starving FE's ?
 

Uh..... ok but I'm just trying to help out my brothers as they would me. I'm Sorry... wha wha wha wha wha . I didn't mean it. I guess thats why I'm just an dumb PFE. Did I ever tell you I HATE CAPTAINS !!! Oh sorry.. I just lost my head for a moment. ANY JOBS OUT THERE ????? Can't you tell I'm bored to death. Do you know the difference between a stagecoach driver and the two pilots sitting up front??. Ok I'll go back to sleep.

Immoderate moderation again..........:p

OO: No it ain't. I have rules to follow too.
FE: I've asked for guidance. As a general rule, links to commercial sites are frowned upon; if they want to advertise here, let 'em contact PPRuNe & cough up accordingly.
This one is a bit of a grey area; you may have noticed that the links are still there. They'll stay there until I get the go/no go decision. There is precedent for making an exception.
And just for the record, I mentioned that in my humble opinion they should stay in this instance. So do us a favour, stop slagging off.

Don't know how long you guys have been around, but this forum wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for Cargo Rat2's perserverence it getting it on line, so why don't you give him a break?

FYI, Custom Air Transport is finishing up a class of 6 F/O's and 6 F/E's as I write this...another class in the works...

Flight Engineers should be obscene but not herd.

"Herd" is for SHEEP
 

Check your spelling. "HERD" in the Websters Dictionary is defined as" A Flight Engineer who taps you on the shoulder while on the approach to Bogota, the GPWS is makeing all kind of noise and he Calmly says "why are those sheep up here in the clouds?":D

CAT1

Can tell you are a pilot by the fact that you had to edit an eight word sentence post. God help us all :D :D :D

Well, my cover is blown. I'll miss flight engineers. Who's going to make the coffee? Who's going to come for a beer when the F/O is more intereted in his hotel room than the local sights? I've got used to that extra pair of eyes, even if they are weary and bloodshot.

I Give UP !!!
 

Who's going to go to the Bar now with the good old Captain AND TEACH HIM HOW TO SPELL !!!!!!!!!:D :D

Fesmokie, please be VERY aware that anyone who ignorantly does ANYTHING that promotes ANY of Neil Robertsons scams will be under close scrutiny here on PPRuNe.

By mentioning the adverts on 350 and other websites where Robertson has been exiled to, only shows me and the other mods on PPRuNe that you have not done your homework about Robertson and his Walter Mitty fantasy land. If you or anyone else wants to give Robertson some free advertising for his fantasy world of 'airline CEO's' then you are NOT going to do it on PPRuNe. I do not allow fraudsters air time on here so be warned.

Did I miss something?

I strongly agree with the above post from the Captain...

My intentions I assure you were not to promote Robertsen but only to raise awarness to all that he is on the prowl once again. I am somewhat ignorant on this mans reputation in the aviation community and by posting the info regarding the add in 350 was only an innocent ploy on my part to perhaps shake up other ppruners to reply to the thread with a little more info about Mr. Robertson so that I and others may not get caught in his web, so to speak. Myself and I'm sure other un-empolyed and desperate crewmembers have received E-Mails from him requesting resumes and licence info and would jump at the chance of an employment offer. So with that said, I apologize if I stepped out of bounds. ;)

Fesmokie!! STOP grovelling!! I take it that you are an F.O.!
