It doesn't look they are looking for lowtimers, some local second officers showed on the sceene...
You really want to come? 3 captains fired , and one downgraded to first officer
in about a month, they love pulling out bars....One in at "training" etops flight (in Airabia training is checking) two in the PPC after being recommended for the check, as it happened before, downgraded in PPC as well!
Management using the safety software to monitor fuel managing and fuel saving procedures... Watch out guys, big bro is watching...

Peeking is the right word , let me remind you that they can't do more than peeking when it comes to normal operation as per the LAW ,
they need Accident/Incident to Access and control these data , CVR's and FDR's exist in order to record information that may be of use in a subsequent accident/incident investigations NO MORE .
Have fun & keep bringing your food from home .

8 days OFF an month sometimes up to 10, you get a couple paired up, occasionally you can get 3 in a row, no more.
flying hours, you'll fly up to the limit, monthly hours from 80 to 110, average 95(?)
From 3 to 9 nights flights per month, now up to 2 in a row.
Very disrupting roster, changes from deep night to early morning and vice versa with minimum rest.
Money is good.

Hi Gipsy

Good dai!

1)You have posted much worth keeping an eye on but kindly advise how long you have been a servant of ABY?It may be worthy learning from your perspective and experience!

2)Hiring on the new second officer deal...what have you on it...does it stink or is it worth it?

3)Any news from chaps who were skinned thru it and came out alive and financially liquid to tell the story?Are there any who completed training but no job at the end of the tunnel?

4)How does the course rate as far as classroom support...or is it more or less a self study-under supervision deal?Is the duration for line training adequate for inexperienced prop spinners/ non rated drivers say?How many sectors before line check?

5)Do you guys fly hard enough to break the CARS???Why cant you refuse and comply?

6)Do pilots and cabin crew have any say to improve how things are dealt with such as rostering?

7)What are the prospects for command upgrades and why such a high failure rate and demotions to match?

8)Areyou expected to learn the FCOM by rote?

OK guys spill the beans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
