Marlim When are the aircrafts expected to arrive? Out of only 14 students how many are UAE nationals? Flight Instructors must have experience of instructional flying as well. To train you on C-172 A320 type rating will not be of any help. Very few Flight Instructors will take a risk of joining a place like AAA.
I am not saying it’s a bad place to work, can be a good one if the Management is good.
I heard that they are going to shift to a nicely furnished Hangar as the Cessna arrive in the last quarter of 2009.
Have they started building it yet or not??? Can you upload some pictures of the construction sight?
I think I read PPL Instructor...can you get a CPL instructor..
I wrote PPL instructor because I am training PPL syllabus since I started instructional flying.i can train CPL syllabus too..

@ Mike.Park
I'm not sure if I have to say that, but AAA's General Manager is a Well known GCAA Authorised Examiner & is one of the Senior Captains in Air Arabia, in addition to the equipments that will be used in the near future (Level D Simulation, MCC & CRM stuff) that are till this moment will be provided by Air Arabia.
I am sure that Air Arabia asked for extra assessments & made some modifications in student selections to manage the risks as I went through the old & new assessments, ByTheWay, not anybody makes it through the assessments, I was just a little over the requirements...not that NASA kind of candidate
(didn't impress anyone in some of the tests).
@.air, the hangar is ready, it needs a little work on the appearance & some painting!, lets just wait & see...why the rush

Just read the posts in Alpha Aviation Academy thread and you will know all the reasons as to why you should not join the Alpha Academy otherwise you will only regret it. Contract is enforced upon cadets 4 months after the training and cadets are then entreanched at all stages ground school, core flying, sim stage etc

keyur.... if you do a search in the Middle East & Asian fourms you will see there are 2 or 5 guys who are the ones constantly expressing their issues.
the best thing you can do is call the school or call GCAA for a feedback from both parties.
For sure within the next 10 mins these same 2 or 5 guys will be responding to this message in their typical childish manner.

Keyur there are two threads running in this pprune and you need to look at the other thread which has got all recent posts on Alpha. Remember you are from India and Dh 440,000 is a huge sum of money. Alpha will lure you with false promises and you will come to know their true colour after you have paid the first installment. The fees just not remain the above figure and money in extracted in the name of remedial classes at every stage. Go through the full thread and see how many negative posts there are. RP COO is part of the management whos job is to lure cadets to Alpha. He must be well aware of the tears and anguish of the cadets they have entreanched at every stage then kept their money in the name of contract which they give to sign four month after the commencement of training which is all in favour of Alpha.

sorry if this is reviving a dead thread, but i thought i'd shed some light on this very negative thread.
I am currently a student with Alpha UAE and i cannot say a single bad word about them... Much like any FTO around the world, they're all about making money, but that does not mean that the teaching quality is sub-standard nor unprofessional.
Much to the contrary, the teaching quality is exceptional and shows professionalism throughout all levels of management, staff and students.
The instructors are approachable and will assist with all issues you may have regarding the subjects you are being taught, and will all do their utmost to make sure you get whatever it is you need to get before even considering you for main GCAA examinations, so that you do not go into an exam knowing that you will fail.
I have been in contact with several ex-students, who are currently flying with Air Arabia and none of them have a bad word to say about the quality of training that they have received, nor failure to deliver on promises made. Most of them have gone on to gain permanent employment at Air Arabia and their future careers are set... Before people judge on what is historic - non current - evidence, i would firmly suggest speaking to people who are actually there or have been students there before passing judgement.

Sigh.
Can you imagine what this chap is going to be like in five years?
Ah, why am I worried? He's all set! Right?
