Probably first part of 2009. Boeing's and Busses are all delayed. The 310's all sold so those pilots are mainly transitioning over to the Boeing except for a handful of the trainers, which are going to the Bus. Classes are all full for the remainder of this year and not anticipating any further hiring until next year due to delays and the 310's being sold. Several in the pool in front of you so my guess would be that you would start class, at the very earliest, in February.
Congratulations on being selected.

no chance
personally, i think i am not crazy, is the only way to get the job.
my first interview with emirates i passed through all stages, but i failed with the references, after then, i didn´t passed even the second stage, i think is depending on the recruiters.
ek is multicultural, why should´t I go to london?
i hope positive answers.
thanks

Emirates Interview Location
Those of you you have recently attended the Emirates Pilot interview, may I please ask where the interview is now taking place? Are they being held at the new Emirates Group Headquarters near Dubai Airport?

A friend of mine is a CA on the 310. He spoke to his next door neighbour, who's in the HR Dept and apparently what he was told was the following...
"After the interview there were 3 options. No thanks, yes with a class date, yes without a class date. I assume you are choice 3. Within choice 3 there are 145 guys. Of those 145 they are divided into 3 groups. With a type and scored high are in the first group, second is not typed but with lots of experience, 3rd is met all the criteria and passed the interview. Group one gets offered first, etc. Probably no classes before Feb 2009. They are restarting interviews in Nov. All 145 that interviewed will be offered jobs at some point."
This was about a month ago and like everything in aviation is subject to change on a daily basis.
Oil coming down is good but the proposed strike at Boeing isn't.......

Obbie,
I take it to mean anyone that has a Boeing or Airbus type. Eveything I've heard leads me to believe that they will offer jobs to the applicants treading water in the pool. My interview was at the end of May, so if they wait until Feb to start classes again that's not going to leave a lot of time before my 12months is up.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Primeco,
That info is all over the forum, a search would yield most of that. But here goes. You'd bring home about the same $, though you have few expenses here with housing being paid for. Command would be about 3-5 years prone to change with no notice. Working conditions are decent compared to other airlines, it's Dubai living that you may or may not have an issue with. It's different than NA, but that dosen't make it better or worse. You really won't know until you move over here and do a year or so for yourself.
