Freebird Airlines - Turkey
Hi
Has anyone had any dealings with this airline? Good or bad. Just been called for a sim session and interview with this airline. I have to also carryout out an independent mollymawk test before I get to the sim and interview. I was just wondering if this was normal. If so, any advice on completing it etc Thanks |
Hey
got a mail too. screening 737 NG ( basic flying). this is a typical assesment in turkey. Mollymawk is like DLR but much easier. |
Thanks for the response.
Have you done the mollymawk test before? Whats your flying experience? |
Hi
Hi Guys !
What kind of approach you chose - direct application or by recruitment agency ? I have ask you because I applied directly a month ago and there is no answer up to now .. |
Hi
I applied through their website and they got back to me within a couple of days |
Are you cadet or have experience? :)
|
I'm a cadet. Easa frozen atpl 212 hours
|
Do they do P2F like Atlas does?
|
Ga_flaps: as far as I am aware: yes.
|
Hot of the Press!!
Just been on the phone to the HR Manager, they are looking at hiring around 10 first officers and the Type ratings is bonded for 6 months or so. This means minimum wage for 6 months then on to the full wage. Thats all folks :-) |
How do they get around the 1500 hour ruling that is specific to Turkey, also whenever they advertise it is always for people with hours on type. This company has never been one to take on low timers, especially expats, if they have it hasn't been advertised for a long time.
|
What 1500 hour rule are you talking about?
|
Well.. I applied today at 21:10 then received mail that They saved my declaration. Then at 21:20 i received message: |
Anyone else going to be at the sim session on the 17th December?
|
have you passed Mollymawk and toeic before?
|
My Mollymawk is next Friday. They told me to bring my results with me. And I havent done a TOEIC because I am a native english speaker educated in the UK so I assume I do not need one.

Freebird
Fanor.. I am also at the sim session at 17th of december
|
Thats good to hear. Whats your flying experience?
Do you know what to expect from the sim session seeing that we do not get anything to study over till the day? |
I am still waiting for my sim session... still no date for me :uhoh:
I passed Mollymawk last friday |
How were the tests? What were your results if you don't mind me asking?
What's your flying experience? |
I am also a low timer. 231 hrs. And i don't know what to expect at the sim session.
|
Mollymawk is similar to the test runs.
you need 60% in basic aptitude which include english, science and math 25 points in spatial orientation, time sharing and working memories. I am also a cadet 200 hours. |
Thanks for that sait. Appreciate it.
I'm guessing you aptitude test scores are broken into points seeing that they are done in percentiles. |
Hey guys any news?
already dates for interview? I had my session on monday, but until now no response |
Hey. It went alright (in my opinion ofc). How was your sim session?
No dates for interview yet, they said that they will contact whether we have been successful or not about the interviews. Any rumors about when the interviews could be? Seeing that I am traveling back to London tomorrow and don't want to come back a day later. No one at Freebird knows anything. Annoying. |
could be better but all in all not so bad.
how many guys were you ? On monday were 6 applicants |
Today they were 4 of us. Supposed to be 6 I believe. Do you know if there are any more sim sessions going on?
|
unfortunately no :(
|
Will you be staying in Istanbul till you hear from them or going back to germany?
|
I am leaving on thursday, it doesnt make sense to stay longer.
in case of an invitation i will come again for only 2-3 days. and you? |
Fair enough. Yeh I'm doing that same thing. Returning back tomorrow
|
Freebird
Hi guys,
Did freebird already contacted you for the interview or what so ever? And do you guys know if you have passed the sim assesment? |
nope... nothing
|
I think you all have some news now right :D ?
Just a few questions: - is the TR SS or will the company bond you for a few years and is it paid for you? - what kind of contract will you get? Permanent or Seasonal? Thanks guys and have a lot of fun on the A320! |
Any feedback ?
Hallo Guys !
Could you be so kind to share with us your experience with this company ? Please |

Anyone recently gone through assesssment for Freebirds? any feedback will be much appreciated First you go through simulator test. It's within IFTC(Istanbul Flight Training Center), then they ask you to do visual approach, one engine out climb, raw data ils approach to LTAI. Then you have to go through 11 pilot aptitude tests. These were the hardest part. Approximately %60 of applicants were eliminated during those tests. After those tests, there is role-play interview with a captain and then interview with a psychologist from Netherlands. Those were easy. I was able to pass all of those, until the general interview. It was quite good for me. But since they require references from Turkish pilot, I was not be the one who got selected. That might be different for expat pilots. I would like to answer your questions if you have any. |
Thank you so much,you’ve been a great help.unfortunately,I couldn’t make it to the interview,as HR. contacted me and asked me to provide them with EU PASSPORT AND EASA licence,mt licence and passport if not in that category.
but I really wish I could fly for them |
