Agency and direct hiring at the same time ?

Reference No FL-FO-2011
Job Title First Officer B737 NG
Educational Qualifications
1500 Total flying hours
300 Minimum on type

Does anyone have any info about this ? Why are both agencies and direct hiring going on ? Is there a difference ? (other than the agency said 2000TT and min 750 on type) This has been asked before a couple of years ago but no answers on the thread.

Also, any recent info re if any pilots are leaving and why ?

Thanks,
M.A.

best advice don't do it find somewhere else what is written on the box is not what is inside. if you are a single FO it might be ok for awhile. if you have a family forget it..............

leaving pilots

Omanisation the airline wants to be Omani only... fair enough.. alot of pilots have left many more are leaving... the place is chaos... you might be able to get a worse run managment but you would be hard pressed.... last choice airline to work for.. no long time future for any expats... the dishonesty is rife....

Oman Air

Hope Vandahum responds again. Drop a klangger and leave!

Perhaps the lack of response speaks volumes, personally i'm an Optimist so hoping for a reply.

Do they hire 737 drivers, if yes where can I apply.
There is nothing in their website and I can not find any agency for Oman air.

Thanks

I hear that the breathalyzer read positive for a 330 crew check recently at MCT.

Stronger rumour says that just a warning was given for a repeat offender.

IF the above is true...
Do you really want to send your families home for vacation with this outfit?

Hmmmm..!!

Pretty shocking post Farrell...

Don't suppose the nationality of the (alleged) miscreants is available..!!

Seems (from what you say) that the Omani's cannot effectively control this issue (Tribalism perhaps..??) - Maybe ICAO/EASA needs to step up their game and should be taking a very serious look at every flight they make outside Omani borders then..!!

From the facts at my disposal - it's high time that all (external) aviation authorities subject Oman Air to an intrusive examination - and we look forward to the results thereof..!!!

Neither naive, stupid or anti-Oman Air.

Just happened to write an Oman Air rumour on an Oman Air thread.

Am well aware that it happens everywhere......but with the BA, EK and others, the press tends to get wind of it, but here it's down to places like this to get the info out.
