Just finished the GTW screening. Very straight forward/ friendly.
Two Oman Air staff, a check airman and an HR person.
Met briefly at the hotel for a short personal introduction. Flying history,
why do you want to work for Oman Air stuff.
Then off to Oxford where the check Capt conducted a group brief oral exam. Panel style with all three candidates asked questions consequetively.
Know the memory items w/o BS. Then a few basic systems and ATP questions.
Sim: one visual circuit. Then a T/O, V-1 cut to SE NPA. Technique of your choice. I used LNAV/VNAV. This to a MA. Followed by a SE ILS. Done.
Pretty basic.
But know the profiles and the callouts. Cold. Standard Boeing.
Was told afterwards that of the 27 candidates screened that week, 7 passed. Reason being that with the large number of very low time FOs, that Oman Air needs Capts with above average handling and command skills.

"flaps210 & MAKAVELI320",

this one of example from insider's in Oman Air send to my PM I got 9 PM's from different people, thing's goes not as smooth as people think in WY, the expat's are affraid to post the truth, only some of expat's (sucker's) that desparate no choice posted the good's thing's but there is bad thing's happen there and have to be informed to all,

This rostering will go on as long as that dmo is still there, they re finally looking to replace him. But he's not the only management problem and management problems are going on since ages in WY. But i do like the company and there are also good pilots in WY, i agree that some people should be stopped but then again the examinors are scared to stop people. Well if you join us, good luck and don't hesitate if you have questions

Oman Air is a very "decent" airline",most of the personnel are very curteous,even the fleet Captains,
I was offered job there 2 years ago but turned it down,I understand from inside sources that the expats on the ATR will not be rated on Embraers,effectively WY want all National Crews within 24 months and are training cadets at this time.
Oman Air is a very strong company and is expanding at an acceptable pace given the world markets and I wish WY all the best in the future.Having lived in Muscat its certainly a nice place,very diverse,cultural,very tollerant and safe,I wish all those coming to Oman all the best.

flaps210

all the best for those of you COMING to oman!!! humm the word cat and bag come to mind!lol
in fact is! i agree that oman air has its down sides but hey which airline doesnt! you just learn to take the ups with the downs and get on with life dude!
all the best
