Has anyone heard from them recently? I sent in my stuff (by email and snail mail) on September 1st. A 'yay or nay' would be fine - but not knowing a bit of a bummer. Anyone else in a similar situation? I have more than 3250 TT and more than 1800 Jet. I'm sure there are many out there with more time and experience than me, but was wondering if anyone with similar experience as this been given a call as of late?
Thanks....
Thanks....

interviewwwwww
Hi guys!
"Overflying" some less important questions (less for me, of course....) like housing, life in Doha and something like that.....i would like back to the basic........does anyone have any updated report from the interview?
I mean i read about many topics in the interview, passing from "long-haul" orientated questions (NAT, ETOPS......) to some old-fashioned questions ATPL style (sweep wing, ias...tas...mach.....relationship in climb and descent, Mcrit, VMCG, VMCA, TORA........."barrette" lights....etc etc)
!
Have a more "operational" questions (about stuff normally used in the LH flights) instead of "ATPL basic" style questions is just "luck" or depends about how many FO they need in the specific moment?
Thank's all for the info and good luck to everybody!

EPR.
LOL in provided By QIC (Qatar insurance company) up to 200.000U$.
Nothing is taken away from your salary.But he..don't dream about it..;
Seems that there are a lot of exclusions,..so basicaly unless you are smashed by an idiot landcruiser driver and you survive...,you might never see the color of this insurance if something happens to you ..IMHO.
It's like The ERP (exchange rate "protection"
)....that doesn't really protect you against the qatari riyal crash.
Just there for the show...

CEO s eyes ( reporters)
Be aware of CSD Linda ( Sri Lankan ) dark girl . She has a nice naive smile but she is eyes and ears of CEO .
I was reported by her for walking from flight deck to business class on A330 in uniform without a hat .
She briefs her R1 : tell me if a Capt sleeping or if a Capt asking anything out of standard coz i need to report it .
Rumor is that she was almost terminated over a pax problem and she beg CEO to keep her in the airline as she need a job . She was spared of termination with 1 condition : to be CEOs eye and ears in the airline .
Another one to add on QR blacklist

Hi United,
I heard the same about Linda (from Sri Lanka).
Guys, be careful when you fly with her!!!
She reports pilots almost on every flight of her, and she forces R1 to do the same.
She is the most unprincipled CSD with QR.

Vaschandi:what a non sense:
I'm just wondering on wich side is the lack of maturity ( the pilots who have been reported or the one who reported them;even kids in kindergarten don't act like that...)

LOC
Hi LOC,
if you would have had a slight chance to look deeper in this stupid
"united no-hat-in-business-class-report", you would agree with me!
It is a united phantasmagoria!
Telling half the truth and chaising colleagues by name is immature!
I bet my hat!

water
Yup UNITED is 100 % right . Flown with a b..... she come and told us if we bring F2 in cockpit she will report us . She also didnt want to give us Evian as she say CEO didnt approve it .
She has an attitude problem and R1 come to us and say : i am sorry this CSD is really to much asking to report anything about cockpit crew.
For me and my friends she is blacklisted .
Well in Qatar Airways blacklist is a normal and accepted fact .
Vaschadi this is not a place to rub your tongue visit 9 floor for that plz .

In this airline I am totally PRO blacklisting these people.
And what is good about it is that they themselves now are aware that a blacklist exists and it actually does make an impression on them.
Does that website with that list still exists? Adress please...
Regarding the water thing:
There is NO memo pilots can not drink EVIAN. There only is a memo stating that CREW do not have acces to passenger ammeneties. It does not differentiate between CCM and flight deck.
Some resourcefull and frustrated CS/CSDs created their own rules with regards to this.
So now they think they can use a bottle of EVIAN to drop their tea bags in, and we drink RAYYAN. Well, not on my flights guys!
Know the rules and know your rights, and when you see this is happening on your flight make a STRONG remark! Had to do it three times so far and untill now with succes!
STAND ON YOUR STRIPES BOYS! Dont let this airline take away your dignity!

TRUE
True is CEO hates pilots to the max . If he can fire them all he would do it .
Most of pilots have C.C girlfriends and thats what piss him off . If any pilot get married for a CC its an issue while male cabin crew in same time if he get married get apartment in building for mix couples.
Be smart when come to water,dates,laban,blanket . You can get it all on flight if you are smart .
I flown with a Capt on A320 every flight he do crew briefing and he ask 1 -2 safety questions and at the point when crew dont know the answer he aske CS to answer when CS dont know he just end the briefing with " when you learn safety manual you are free to remind me what i am allowed to have and what not ". He got all forbiden items on aircraft . As no CS will try to report a guy who just proven her in front of other crew that she do not know SEP .
