Still full of cr*p pita bread.
Did I say there was no incident in JNB? No! Did I say there hasn't been a hard landing on the 330? No!
What I did object to is your blantant bulls**t exaggeration of "two hard landings a week on the 330" and some vague reference to low fuel states in London, New York and Doha.
If you want to hang out this company's dirty linen, get the facts and post those. Don't make up your own.

Salamalejkum 2 i hope this will help you .
Doha ATC will activate LVP when VIS is below 1200m which also mean separation should be increased from standard radar 5 NM to 12 NM.
For instance AUH will rise LVP even on VIS 2000m its up to airport ATC .
F/O can take off and land even if LVP is in force as long as you have :
RVR above 600 m
Cloud base 200ft or above
Wind CWC less 15kt
and its not CAT C
You can take 30 min fuel for LVP becouse you can expect delay in taxi and take off clereance due to separation 12 NM

i think what is happening on the a320 fleet is a reflection of the hiring process .some of the asars i have seen are basic flying skills problems and the question is how is the fleet responding to these problems are they given extra training or shown the way out ,casue that s what was happening when i joined unless ur a local its swept under the carpet .u could be fired for simpler mistakes how about these ones .

Thanks Ronaldo...at least i known when LVP start here.(to plan for my extra fuel..yes yes i do carry some extra fuel sometime......
)
I was well inspired that day to take extra fuel when i saw on the Forecast Tempo VIS 1500m..
And delays on Arrival as well....that's why it Could be interesting to have those info available (LVP,when?)for all airports...before the flight..just to plan ahead..?
Cheers

Here we are guys,..Q.A is already aware of the massive turbulence zone, major american airlines(and others) are flying through due to the high cost of fuel(unless it's part of another south American recruitment plan).Qatar airways has start recruiting in ..MIAMI....(At least those guys will not suffer from the devaluation of the Qatari riyal(peg to U$)....
), not like the majority of us!!
Salary increase..:keep dreaming and keep suffering!
Cheers.

The only think that will increase here according analyst is.. the inflation!
The worse is not over..!
Qatar is already the first in the gulf regarding inflation,sure they will keep this position...
Just pick up this one in the news:
"Rising Gulf inflation could push foreign workers home"
"LURED by tax free jobs and cheap living, foreign workers have long gravitated to wealthy Gulf Arab states to earn a better living,but rising costs are now forcing many to go home"
interesting.....

yeap that's it. Just make a simple calculation.
PIC 320 makes average 48000. Housing kills the whole thing.
48000-12000 housing=36000 QAR =6300 EUR. That's what skippers in EU are doing even with LCC after Tax. Do I need to say more? No bond, DEC 320, with all social benefits. The only way job in QR is attractive is if being alone here and live on bread and water while sharing the accommodation and girl friend. In other words cheaper cheaper in the motto. Neighbors in KUL are far more attractive. As long as QR suits one's needs it's ok otherwise divert.
Don't take it personally take it on the rocks!!!

CEO PITA,
I really have to wonder are you a mature person or you just like to come on to PPRUNE and antagonize people?
You really need to get your facts straight on anything/everything you talk about.
I know this is a rumour network but you seem to have all of your facts as well as your spelling all messed up and you contribute absolutely nothing constructive to any of the post.

msian1147 I'd say so. It's no brainer to do the math.
Package in KUL 8000 US after tax plus pension under you name approximately 900 bucks a month. How much are you going to spend living in KL 4000 US$?
That you must be working hard on. You can buy an accommodation straight away for somewhere around 150 000 US$ and live decent lifestyle. Weather and joy not even considered. Malasia is probably one of the best countries in SE. That's all under the premise of no pay rise in QR. If there was one then it's a different ball game. Convinced? In the end what counts isn't how big is the paycheck but how much can you save at the end of the month apart from being happy and enjoy the life. Totally forgot to mention they take you as DEC 320 if more than 5500 jet or something like that. No vain promisses or wait and see management change crisis force major blah blah blah.....

Air Asia of course. If I'm not mistaken lots of F/O's have paved their way to KUL already. Unfortunately ME airlines fight F/O shortage with delaying the upgrades instead of accelerating them. As a result more exodus of F/Os is seen. In my view they'd be doing far better introducing fast track command. methinks no shortage was see then.

Yes..Housing kills you, but let's be fair and let's say the company has done a lot regarding housing problem, in the mean time now inflation kills you, devaluation of the riyal kills you... so let's hope (dream) for the future of the company that they will do something urgently to solve this huge problem...
Otherwise..don't known who's gone come here in the near future...

msian1147 you certainly can do so. At the beginning of you career not much choice is there. Generally take whatever suits you best. However don't rush into taking first available offer. Weigh your options very carefully. I still would give preference to my own country and my own airline and people. It's easier and more relaxed and career progression chances aren't that farfetched. Big jets won't run away still lots of them to come in the next 10 years or so. Same approach to command. First get qualifications back home like the upgrade etc then make a move otherwise you give away control of your life and many lives were destroyed over some absolut meaningless reasons. Conclusion after having worked for more than 8 years as expat:
Don't go anywhere for a career go as the BOSS. Doing so you run the show the way you want it. I'm sure your old grandpa sings about the same song.

well i heard most airlines in Southeast Asia are freezing the recruitment to cut cost..
i guess it's just a way for the airlines to take cover from the soaring fuel costs..
but like u said, dont rush as im only 17, and just finished my high school..im planning to go to the Malaysian Flying Academy, and perhaps join QR cuz i strongly think it's easier to get a job with this airline, and plus it's less competitive, compared to airlines in Malaysia..thanx 4 da advice!
