Could I kindly ask for the more inforation regarding Air Astana as well? Thinking assessment will be in Amsterdam, but that shouldn't make a difference, I guess.

There is sigma aviation services and direct personnel.

Can anyone advise how does it work in terms of your license, do you keep your EASA or change to Kazakh?

You’ll have to be based there cause it’s their national flag career they’re not gonna base you outside the country

You keep your license and medical and airline will make a local validation for you.

If I have to move out to Asia, i expect they accommodate my needs. I need to live at home To serve at my local community. Commuting contract of 3 on 3 off would be splendid

best luck to all of you

Look mate I don’t know what your problem is. I think you’re the fella that has been causing a lot of trouble on these forums. 6 on 2 off contract is fine by me too, cant get everything your way!

Assessment next week. Anyone feel free to Get in touch with me if you are the same.

You don’t expect an airline to meet up your requirements when you are the one moving in the country

Hey guys are there any of you who applied with less than 300 hours TT on the website ?

Thanks

I know its a big ask, but many airlines in Asia are being flexible and offering good commuting optional/packages...

And you need to apply via an agency such as Sigma, CAE etc.

Kazakhstan is not Asia like China and so on. It's former USSR, so it is like Russia with its own national things. The life quality and conditions are different compared to the Europe, especially to the western part. I worked there for 1 year for another airline, but I'm from Russia and it was hard even for me in some things.

Can anyone please explain how we don’t have to convert our licenses? Just a ‘local validation’. Sounds dodgy as hell.
