Much better options in Vietnam these days in pay and roster, not to mention culture - if commuting's your thing.

Age requirements

Hi,

I was trying to apply to Korean and noticed that there is a minimum age requirement for captains.
CCL said captains must be over 40 years old while Rishworth said over 38.
Anyone has more information regarding this requirement? Is it company or aviation authority requirement? anyone knows if there is anyone below that age working for Korean as a captain?

Captain over 40 and FO under 45. You cant make this stuff up.

Any 737 roster out there to share?

Do I need to be a citizen to be able to fly at Korean air??

No mention of that unless its something very new.

Just google Korean Air DEC recruitment,

Hi aviators , let me kindly do 2 Questions:
- I am B737 - PIC hours 2k+ ,34 years old , no way to join KAL 737 fleet DEC If qualified but below 40 years old !?

- any idea about how long to wait as DEC 737 till Be oferecer long haul ?

many thank for your feedback
regards

[The Turtle]

as of today there is no recruitment on the 737. you can verify this with CCL

latest is the 787 and 777 will be common crewed if the chairman gets his wishes. (up to government approval)

it probably keeps out the midlife, career change FO’s that think they’re extremely clever and carry a chip on their shoulder. I imagine this is based on a long history of contract pilots, both good and bad. My previous airline had an unofficial policy similar to this as well as a reference for certain nationalities and an allergy to others. Before you shout or stereotype, my previous airline was african. The blacklisted nationalities were western in origin.
