have you flown the B 777 before?
Are they hiring pilots with turboprops hours?

Check your PM's...

The 6th 777 is due for delivery this Sat i believe.

Hi Guys

I have an interview with Aerologic coming up very soon. Would appreciate if somebody could provide some info about the tests to expect...

Thanks a lot...

Hi Guys

In the same boat as LAJ above. I Will appreciate if somebody could provide any info about the tests to expect...

Thanks and regards

Any news ?

In the recent past AL also hired a lot of "Turboprop only" guys.
And they still need a lot of pilots.

Tests:
Most important is the dinner and the interview. You have to fit in the team.

Good luck!

Anyone in the know....

Are they still hiring FO for accelerated command? 8600 total (8400 Jet), 6000+ wide-body, 1000 777 would I be in the ball park for that? Realistic time-line for UPG?
How much per-diem per month in average?
Thanks for the hassle!

They told me during the interview i would qualify for accelerated command with around 5000 hours narrowbody experience, just would need to do 1500 hours widebody and then i could apply for any upgrading available, however they also said that all upgrades for the next around 5 years are allready planned with those hired in the first few waves, with no further expansion in sight that could mean a long time on the right seat. So with your experience you certainly qualify.

Hello,

I got invited with Aerologic on the 24th & 25th of August. I booked 2 hours 737 NG sim with LuftHansa Flight Training in Berlin for Practise ( no Jet experience ). Does anybody want to share these Sim Hours ???

Thanks Ian

Without any Widebody hours you do actually not qualify for the rapid command as you need 1500h of that. This would take about 3 years and most of the A/Cs are delivered by that time.

@what_goes-up, you have all the requirements for the rapid command (5000TT, 1500h widebody and 500h on type), so if you speak german, I guess it will be less than a year

That's what I like the pilots community for... Thanks a lot for the replies!

One more thing. Of the 85'000 gross. How much would be the take home for family with 3 kids?

@EIM German is not a factor... My mother language:ok:

I don't know why companies like Aerologic doesn't write clearly in theirs pilot requirements that the applicants should speak/write/read GERMAN...

Air France always states in its pilot requirements that you should speak French for applying.

At the end the JAR license is a big lie...I have more than 5,000 hrs in heavy jets and I haven't received more than the acknowledgment application email but I don't speak German.

One of the worst guys in my company was positive initially in Cargolux...he is tall, blonde and of course he speaks German...but somebody saw his name in the positive list and complain because his very bad behavior and he was stopped.

I would say, this is what you want.:}

BTW: All emails I have received are in english.

@what_goes_up na dann is ja alles klar :)

As you might know the german tax system is not known as the easiest one,
it depends on a few factors, married and does your wife work or not, kids.
I would say with 3 kids your net should be around 60k per year, could be more, but 5k net per month plus per diem should be the minimum.

You can find a tax calculator at the official website of the German Ministry of Finance: https://www.abgabenrechner.de/

The site is in German, but that shouldn't be a problem for you.

Actually you can qualify for accelerated command with only narrow-body hours, however that basically means 2 years waiting (accumulating those 1500 hours widebody) and 5000€ more per year, mind you, that is still only 55.000€ a year if you do not have the rating, 60.000€ if you have. All commands for the planned deliveries are already pre-assigned with those they took on earlier anyway, so everybody joining now has to wait until someone retires or leaves the company to get a place.

Maybe that’s the reason why Aero Logic does not hire co-pilots at age 40+:ugh:

Have read that they might be looking for SO's... any truth to this?

SOs
 

They hired two Second Officers and want to see how it works out with them.
For the future: ???
