If one wants to work in dubai - where to purse training from ?

Sorry guys.

I need your advice.

As mosts courses offers around 200-250 hours in end of cpl, so what it takes to join airlines after doing cpl ?

If one wants to work in gulf then what one can do after completing cpl ?

I'm newbie & don't have any pilot mate who can guide me., so you're all my hope.

Please help !

Looking at your previous posts and at the risk of feeding a troll. As you are in India and no good at Math and Physics (your words not mine) go to a local school, get educated and then get trained to be a pilot. It is easier to get a starter job in India than Dubai so get that job then see if you can move forward in your career. It would really help you if you read the site and post on the right forum next time

Firstly thanks for the response

Yes I'm not good at math, I'll give it try again for sure.
I have contacted few flying schools & they said you just need basic maths like ( addition-subtraction-multiplication-division + arithmatic) & they said you can do the training, they said thats our job to train you, so confused to trust them or not.

I don't want to work in india, so looking for a course which can give me atleast hope to get hired abroad after completion of course.

I'm in talks with US schools & UAE for cpl. so confused where to to training from.

So after doing cpl - Its good to do CFI course aswell ? to have better chances to get the job ?

Do you actually understand what you are getting into? 250 hours will not get you an airline job in the ME .

Gaining flying experience.

Airliners are not the only aeroplanes in the world.

As you are starting a little later in life, you want to think about options like Africa and Papua New Guinea, as places where you can go as a cpl and gain experience in general aviation type flying.

It sounds like you are putting the cart before the horse, you should focus on actually being trained first.

There is no short cut to getting hired into your high paying middle east airline dream job. (Save being a cadet pilot, but you are not a Gulf national so that's out)

There is also no "best" or "quickest" or "easiest" way to getting hired here. Even after your CPL, you are simply not experienced enough to be a desirable candidate.

This is the wrong part of the forum to ask about how to gain that experience. Each of us did it in our own way. Some by paying to do it, others by working a lot of low paying difficult jobs. How I did it back in my day is also irrelevant, the industry changes from year to year and country to country.

There is no lit path between where you are and your goal. Read on each company's website what the minimum hiring requirements are, and then figure out a way to get from here to there.

Actually, there is an "easy" way, but it's not cheap. Assuming that you don't flunk the course, Alpha Aviation offers a program with Air Arabia. 1500hrs on the 320. MPL license initially, and then the ATPL at 1500hrs. If there are vacancies, you may be considered for a permanent position at that time. Costs around 700k AED (Approx).

Definitely not cheap, but you need to decide the opportunity cost for yourself.

Hey Wizofoz - I get your point, surely will read on africa aspects.
Thanks mate.

You're right boss, I may sound crazy but I was just asking before hand, if any course would get me a job assuming will do it from gulf itself, hence seeking information.
I'm checking carriers site for requirements to get hire.

Is it worth to do type rating from the institute from where you take training from, I see some flying school providing jet course & in that they providing TR so it worth to do or do it when we apply for job to airlines & do the tr from their selected institute ?
Thanks boss !

Yes I have gone through their site & course looks promising but cost is 7 lakh dirhams which is too steep, I'm searching & looking for options.

I guess I have wasted so much of my time ( 7-8 years) from my life, my friends advice me to forget this carrier but I don't want to, rest depends on god will.

Thanks
