thanks.
Scrolling through previous posts, you mention you know little on the Falcon and that it operates under some type of FAR (can't remember). But I imagine it won't be too far, in terms of conditions, from the SV contract.
What is your opinion?

FAR91 operating a private aircraft for the owner, not for hire or reward.
FAR135 Non schedule operations for hire or reward.
From pilots point of view, FAR 91 has no duty time limitations, FAR135 has!

Its owned by a leasing company, but Saudia operated, its not a new scheme, they just hadnt finished painting it...... Expect it in Jeddah on Friday and rapidly followed by 8 more 
BTW, note the single overwing emergency exit, lots of rumors as to why it doesn't have two exits, but the fact is that it only has 136 seats! The SVA aircraft (not leased) will have even less

Saudi Arabian Airlines (Saudia), Saudi Arabia’s national airline, has taken the delivery of its first Airbus A320 becoming the newest operator of the aircraft. The aircraft was acquired under a long term lease agreement with ALAFCO.
The A320 will be deployed on routes in the region, to Europe and to the Indian subcontinent, from Saudia’s hub in Riyadh. Depending on configuration, the A320-200s, will seat between 120 and 132 passengers in two-classes. The aircraft are powered by CFM56 engines.

BTW, as the A320 fleet increases, the leased fleet will decrease, 2x 757's will go Jan 1, the other 2 on Jun 1..... For those contractors with Atlas, be warned......

Screening for Captain 320 and FO B744
Hi Guys,
I have screening with Saudi Arabian Airlines in Jeddah next week for Captain A320 or FO B744.
Anyone have any "gouges" for the Technical Quiz, the Interview and the Sim Profiles.
Anything appreciated!
Cheers,
Nomad

B747....
Mutt,
Re: Saudi Arabian Airlines Screening.
Thanks for that. I did not realise still had B747 classic with major ME airlines. After 9 yrs/6000 hrs+ on the B744 would not be an easy way back to the steam gauges.
Guys
Any info/gouges on the Test Quiz, Inerviews (Tech and HR) and Sim profiles/airport in use? Assume Jeddah?
Thanks,
Nomad
