I think you will find the problem is the UAE not EK.
I believe women have been accepted in the past, but the problem is apparently that UAE labour law does not allow a women to sponser her husband. So the husband of a married woman pilot would have to get a job and be sponsored in his own right to live in the UAE.

Hey, lets forget the fact that these cadets are WOMEN> surely, if they were to go through a normal national selection prog, one of the ladies would be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy below the limit (size) dimensions for the seat. There is NO WAY with the seat up high enough and the pedals all the way back, that she would ever get full rudder on with those pins. Yet again, a rule that arabizatiion is the best thing that can happen to the middle easts future comes to show itself. ( Disclaimer:> she may well be the best NATURAL pilot on the planet and I dont dispute that possibility).

Not really sure about this one...I don't see anything wrong with it of course. And the small witted Saudis have nothing to do with it.
Female pilots fly into the Kingdom of Dirt all the time....
Maybe some of the females would be smarter than us and don't take the crap from Management.....
I just love that "Keep Discovering" part.

a mystery,
If yoiu have the min quals, which are on the web site, you should be getting a call shortly. Interviews are happening fast and furious if the quals are met. No exceptions on that.

Goof Ball and Bypasss ratio....F___K OFF 
Bypass Ratio....what a fitting name....guess most of it is hot air that passes you by.
Mystery. Come on down and see it for yourself. Bring your other half. Years ago there was a rule that women could not sponsor their men. I nor sure how that is looked upon today. The recruiters will know all about that.

A Mistery,
As Payscale says "the recruiters will know all about that". Have a go and send them an email. Ignore the kids on the block. Good luck!

Emirates and women pilots ?
Possibly a dumb question but Emirates doesn't take women pilots, does it ?
Most assuredly yes, dear lady. One of them even posts on this forum, under the name "Mensaboy."
