good luck with interview,...not perfect here but nothing is.

just be prepare with Jepps general and don't screw up with CRM games ( well they call it games but it was pretty clear).

On the games just be someone who offer a lot of help to other group or person,...after u try and finish your own assigment as best as u can,...u will never guess what the wholegroup try to do but just try your best and don't freak out, remain calm, don't try to be a hero, don't be commanding and don't urge some idea that might destroy the group works ,but do try to help each other.

and on interview with captains,...just say u don't know if u in doubt, and say u'll read more,...and be HUMBLE !!

On sim pretty standard,they 'll try to distract u, but just fly and no EGPWS warning whatsoever.

U'll srew up like most of us but as long as you land in 1 piece and no crm issue with your sim partnerm u'll be ok..

Good luck

Hi,

Could anyone tell me if there are many EY pilots actually living in Dubai (340 roster)? If so, are they finding housing affordable and available?

Am also looking for info on rosters lease, average days off etc.

Thanks.

Hello guys/girls, I am just about to finish my application for the FO position in EY, CAN anybody help me out with two concerns??

1. When they ask, what is the experiation date on the Pilot's license, what do you put? because so far I understand pilot's certifcate never expire.
2. A FAA second class medical certifcate work fine with EY before the interview???

Thank you very much for the help.

Most of the non-FAA licenses have expiration dates. eg GCAA (UAE) license has a 8 year validity. Just put NA as EY knows about FAA licensing. Also you will need to get your first class before the interview.

You'll need a valid First Class medical and ATPL endorsed with A330, A340, A320 or B777 to be considered for an interview at the moment.

...and 500hrs on type

Heading090

thank you very much for that quick reply, now, I have FAA ATP (ATPL???) and A320 type, but I don't make the 500 hrs on type, do you think I have any chance to be called for an interview?

Thank you again...

Severely Jetlagged

Not until you have the 500 hours as a productive First Officer on type. Captain recruitment has been suspended since last year.

Bookie.....

Ya there are quiet a few EY pilots living in Dubai, not sure of the exact numbers but its not really a question of the fleet you are on.

Ive been living in Dubai for 5 years, and have been based in AUH the whole time. Average drive time form the Springs/Lakes/Medows/Emirates Hills/ Dubai Marina area is only 45 minutes distance is 110 km ( u do the math ) ..even if your driving Miss Daisy it will only take 1 hr tops.

My longest trip time was due to fog and that only took 90 min...normally Ill leave 90 min prior to check in , just in case..so no big deal at all.

Anecdotal evidence has more pilots choosing that option. Housing is becoming more affordable in Dubai and some company housing in AUH is not up to par. Personally I've been thinking of taking that option and saving any surplus on the housing allowance. There are many nice areas in DBX which would put us between forty-five minutes to an hour from AUH.

Hi Guys,

I applied to Etihad a month ago for the F.O 777 position. I got an automatic reply saying my application has been submitted successfully. Now I'm just playing the waiting game. Does anyone know if there is currently selection taking place and how long is it before they contact you after applying?


Cheers.

Severely Jetlagged

If you are B777 rated, current with a minimum of 500 hours on type you may well hear something in the next few months. If you are not rated it could be a very long wait.

AAY

Thanks for replying Severely Jetlagged,

Unfortunately I do not have a rating on the 777 nor the Airbus.
I have a fantastic Avro Rj 85 rating at the moment! Its about as useful as a glass hammer!
Are you a pilot with Etihad? If so, what is life like over there?

Cheers
