Emirates don t employ female pilots from what I understand. They are still looking for the right girl for the job. I have asked a few Emirates pilots if they knew if women pilots would be recruited and they said no, usually followed by a laugh. I fly for Air Asia a Muslim airline and they have two female pilots. One local and myself, a foreigner.

Just a quick question did you join Air Asia through the Parc self funded 737-300 scheme, or were you 737 experienced from elsewhere prior to joining?

I believe its all changing at the moment but when I did it all i had was the usual low hours. Lots of tests, (eg. maths, personality, tech etc) and a sim ride to see how you fly manually. Normally a search in the PPRUNE archives will produce the info you require.
