Can someone tell me what the purpose is of listing all your types & hours here?

:confused:

Application
 

Isn't this where we apply??
:8

If only it was that simple:p

Any DHL UK applicants get the nod yet:ok:

Patience is a virtue!!! Guys its only jet-set next yearrrr!! :ok:

Interviews
 

I hear that first interviews are being held in Berlin as we 'speak'.
Most of the guys are LTU crews so far (DFO is ex LTU as well).

Unsavoury as it may sound to some, recruiting known individuals can be an efficient method of yielding loyalty! On that basis I had half expected a few experienced DHL/EAT pilots to be selected to attend the first batch of interviews. To date though I have heard of only one - good luck to that man!

As the VP OPS is the former DFO of LTU, this loyalty comes from the LTU guys and as I said in this thread earlier, most guys will come from LTU and that is what happens now.

I for one, don't doubt that at all EAM but who can honestly blame him for firstly selecting individuals already known to him?

100% agree, he takes the guys he knows and he can rely on. Most of them are in positions with LTU for years, so it is an existing team, not unimportant for a start up.
Also as most of the guys are german, they are quite sure that they will stay and not just grap a 777 rating and leave after 2-3 years.

LBA
 

"ATPL issued by a JAA state or another authority accepted by the LBA"

what does LBA stand for?

"Luftfahrtbundesamt", the german aviation authority.

AeroLogic interview
 

Anybody attended Aerologic`s fist interview ?
Please share your experience; working conditions, days off, pay etc.
Thanks

So, what's the deal? Are these okes taking non-JAA or what?

Why should they take non JAA? You need to have a JAA ticket latest after one year on a validation. However I am sure they will get enough pilots who are qualified with JAA tickets.

Uh, I dunno, really. But do you see that? I actually answered your question. You, on the other hand, simplyu spewed the drivel of which you are clearly made.

The LBA doesn't even allow new type ratings onto valid ICAO compliant german licenses (pre-JAR). No way in hell will they allow non JAR-licensed personell to work in an outfit like that.

And how far would I get at UPS or FEDEX with a JAA licence.

Exactly---Its something we have accepted on this side of the pond so why is the opposite not accepted by those on the other side.

Come now children. Let us not allow our pathetic egos to let us lose sight of the question.

That was it there. There was neither hint nor allegation of who is allowed to do what in the EU vs. USA. A simple, straightforward question was asked regarding license requirements.

The answer to the question, minus all of your childish rants, might have gone something along these lines:

1. No. I have applied without a JAA license and have been turned down because of it.

Or,

2. Yes. My application is under consideration and I do not have a JAA license.

Simple, see. However, of course, it is never that simple in an industry so full of whining imbeciles and egotistical deadheads. :ok:

You asked about Fed Ex; here is the low down. Let's assume for the moment that the U.S. would accept the JAA license and would issue an FAA certificate; you still could not work for Fed Ex. All crews that are hired by Fed Ex are initially Memphis based crews and that would mean you would need to have a green card.
Take a look at part 61 of the FAA regs and you might find that you can take a written exam and pass a checkride in order to obtain a U.S. certificate.
