I don't think they take none rated people, But I could be wrong. Their pay look's better than EY for flying 320's. Now the question is, what is cost of living in SHJ. from the post above for FO look's like you can make about 25 to 26000 a month I hope it's enough money to live in SHJ and save some. I was told the rents are very High in U.A.E anywhere you live.

320 type rated only however there is an ab-initio program in place for Nationals.
Do take on second officers with a bare type rating and progress/promote to F/O status. Upgrades to date have been extended to F/Os with approximately 1 year at the company however a few have been bypassed due to lack of an ATPL.
Roughly 60 pilots now operating 5 aircraft with 3 more airplanes coming by the end of 2006. Have announced new destinations Kabul and Istanbul with more to be announced as the new airplanes arrive.
For more info, see www.airarabia.com
Cheers.

Hi , I was thinking about doing a F/O course with jetlink, apparently all the pilots that have done the A320 type rating did their 500 hours with Air Arabia and then were all employed as F/O's there. Can you give me any more info on this Terd?
(please no debate on the self funded type rating etc etc)

jetlink
Yes I have been considering the course as it would pay its self off in three years. If I pay for a instructor rating that would probly pay itself off in around 3 years aswell but I will have jet time instead off single piston engine time.

Air Arabia?
Just wondering if anyone out there is current on the employment situation with Air Arabia, the LCC based out of Sharjah? Wondering if they employ low timer, non-type rated guys...with the year bond of employment without salary?
Any information would be great?
Cheers,
N-man
