Alpha Aviation Academy

They are in talks with a new airline, a low cost carrier in Oman. But it wont be a partnership with Alpha, it would be only with Air Arabia.

Salam air ?

[pfvspnf]

Can you elaborate a little more ? Basically aby cant accommodate everybody so they are pushing it off to a start up ? Won't this mean even more delays ? Am I correct ?

[pfvspnf]

It's pretty much confirmed that nobody is going to get a permanent contract . Latest developments indicate that the pipeline will be slow and many will be asked to leave. I have been saying this will happen for a long time. I do feel sorry for those who are a stuck and it serves as a warning to those who are considering alpha.

[veiri86]

do you mean after the 1500 flying hours,nobody will get permanent contract?

Can you please share your sources? I mean reliable source!

[pfvspnf]

Meeting recently happened in Sharjah , would be better if someone on the inside can confirm this..

[Flawedfish]

Entrance exam

Can anyone provide with the kind of questions asked in the entrance exam

[pfvspnf]

Students are on a hiatus , no end in sight , definitely no job !

[Renz_Aero]

Reading above thread if I understand correctly, there is no permannet contract after 1500Fh, but the training would still include the 1500FH correct?
Is it not enough to look somewhere else? Apprecite if somebody give an advice.

[pfvspnf]

Another drop in profit reported , students will be delayed for a long long time. Very unreliable place

[Officer Kite]

More fool those who paid £140,000 to fly an A320 with no living costs or anything at all contributed. Plus £600 selection fee, and they don't even help with your visa. Someone somewhere hasn't got enough suitcases to fit all his cash in.

Hi,

I need some advice please help me with some information.
The MPL AAG program includes 1500FH, is that correct?
The uncertainty is that there is no permanent contract after this, is that also correct?

After your 18months training suppose you have completed everything, how long before you can join Air Arabia for the Line A320FH training to complete the 1500H?

The problem starts with after completing 1500FH? if so, is it not enough FH to look job somewhere else?

Appreciate it!

[pfvspnf]

The problem starts the minute you pay them your first deposit , they will delay you and not give you any answers.

[Dogkim]

It is not so bad as you are thinking.
Please stop posting rumor here bro.

[Officer Kite]

Dogkim what's your experience of the programme? Are you on it? I am very intrested to hear the opinion of someone on the course who can tell us reality because all I have heard are very bad rumours and a very rude email from Alpha in my inbox from the one time I inquired about this programme

[Dogkim]

For me, so far it is fine. Good instructors and fine schedules.
There are delays between phases but it is getting better and better.

[pfvspnf]

When did you start ? When are you going to do your posts flying? How can you say it's not so bad without experiencing it start to finish ? Many unqualified arrogant people there

[pfvspnf]

@ officer K ? What did the rude email say ?

I would like to know if they have improved in anyway. After I have successfully completed the training will I be able to get a job with Air Arabia. I have been told that this will happen and I would like to verify it.

thanks for the help

I'm contemplating sending my son to the Middle East for training on the mpl course but One thing is for sure middle east is in trouble and I doubt I will be sending him to AAA. It's too risky spending all that money especially as the big two down there are reducing in size and talks of mergers etc.

Europe seems the best least risky option.
