I will appreciate with all do respect to everyone if you could give me the complete name and nationality of your fellow pilot that past away recently

I knew a Captain whose name is Renato and left Mexico for the Gulf many years ago.

Thanks for the info.

CEO, don't known if the figure you mention about the F/O resignation rate is as accurate as the salary increase you announced a few months back here(30%)....If its correct 48F/O resignation/10days, it means almost 5/day...Sh...if it continues like that at the same rate,within 2 months there will be no F/O anymore in Qatar airways...!

Anyway i think Upgrade "problem" is just the tip of the iceberg here, if you work in a good career airline(wich Q.A. is not)..and live in a nice place, you will be probably ready to wait 7 years or more for an upgrade, and it's probably worth it...:not here.

Are you saying more people failed than attended? Don't get your math man! Being told that candidates should learn the basics.
Don't take it personally take it on the rocks!!!

QR Resignations

Is it true a lot of F/O's are leaving?. And if so where are these guy's going?. And how many have left?. To be honest, I have not seen a difference at tech.

Do youu really want to stay and wait 7 y to command ant then when time comes 4 instructors will aske you crazy things and fail you .
Instead you could go to Etihgad or any other ialrine and become captian in 2-3 y without hard time on intervew . Hey man only 1 cleared last one !

Thanks! Cheers!

Snoop

About 20 days to get the letter (presuming it is positive), then it is up to you, really.
If you can start immediately, it is gonna be a month or so. Then ground courses + type rating course = 3 months. Line training takes between 15 to 30 days.
Do the math yourself.
All this if no delays due to lack of training capability at that exact moment.
I've heard of training taking 2 and a half months and 6 and a half months.
As allways - just a matter of beeng at the right place at the wrong time, or vice-versa!

Good flying to all!
