Thanks for the advice 4HolerPoler.

I completely understand what you're saying. I unfortunately don't know anyone on the inside of GF; I filled out the online application a little while ago and about a got the news last week that I, like NTM, might be considered for a spot.

To tell you the truth I'd take the job in a heartbeat. Any other suggestions are always appreciated.

Kind regards.

PilatusDriver and NTM try this:

I'm sorry but both parties have requested that their names & contact details be removed from this forum. I've complied. Both suggested using website contact details. You could always contact 987654 directly & get the details that were posted here. 4HP

Thumbs up and good luck!!

Dear 987654,

Thank you for the information. I'll e-mail both gentleman today and see if they have any advice on what step to take next.

I owe you a round of beers.

Hey Captain Over... it's good to know there's a bunch of us down there. I'll definitely keep in touch and tell you how things go.

Enjoy the rest of your vacation!

Aviator757... I applied a little while ago via the Gulf Air Website. The only news I've heard so far is that they are looking at my profile. It doesn't really mean I might even get an interview or sim-ride... but one can only hope . I'll post any news that I may get.

NTM, Air Mike 957,

Sorry for the delay, been away for some time.
The mentioned salary is an average captains salary including all
allowances. It's paid in BD (connected to the $). It is not a WORLD salary, but tax free. Keep in mind housing allowance will not rent you a castle here.
For the AUH base I've heard it will be appartements, family or not, which I find very unattractive to say the least considering that most of us live in villas now.
And to GF management; please consider making this AUH 'proposal' a bit more attractive for us. I do not see anything now that makes me say " Abu Dhabi here I come"

Aviator 757,
Sorry for the tardy response. I have 5600 TT, 800 B767/B757, 400 B727 and the rest on mostly J32 / J41 ( My favorite). Typed in 757/B767/J41. FAA Ratings.
I have filled up the online aplication and I got an email a couple of weeks later stating that I was being looked at. That is it !!!.
NO date for nothing. Just an email to say that I was being reviewed.

PilatusDriver and the rest of the gang,
So far I haven't heard nothing yet. I will try this contact in the U.K.
Anybody else has ??

GULFPILOT76,
Thanks for all the info you are posting.
I have one more question. What is the conversion rate $ vs DB ??


Thanks ....

Any likelihood of the minimum requirements coming down from ATPL, 1500 hrs TT, 500 hrs on 767? Does it help if you live in the UAE already?

Cheers

Without using many grey cells haselled I think you would find the answer to your question would be
