Thank you guys,good if they advise, still better to know when exactly you have to move:ok:
The waiting time can continue then:zzz: |
jacek...
I got mine just 8 days before the interview, so don't worry! They usually work very well and comply with all what they informed you about on the schedulled interview email.
Good luck |
Does anybody know Qatar Airways pilots per aircraft ratio?
Because in 2012 Qatar Airways will on average receive a new aircraft every 18 days and in 2013 a new aircraft every 15 days. I would just like to do the basic maths, how many pilot needed this year and of course what is the sucess ratio with interviews. |
Licence Authority Form
I recieved my contract this morning and im unclear about one of the documents. The License Authentication Form is directed towards countrys with a CAA. The FAA does not sign documents like this. How have American pilots handled filling out this form? I was considering just getting it notarized but Im afraid Ill run into trouble with that because it asks for who the issuing authority is. A notary at a bank probably wouldnt slide.

Congrats Etravis82.
How long between good news and contract? Cheers |
Good News
Hello All. I just wanted to update and encourage those of you waiting to hear back from H.R after your interviews. I interviewed Mid-February and I just received the good news of the successful passage of the Flight Deck selection process today. I know there is no rhyme or reason as to when one will hear back from H.R but I just wanted to offer a reference point because having waited a for month myself, I know every bit of encouraging news helps.;):)

Priceless:D

I don't know the pilot/aircraft ratio but I was told by the flight deck selection manager himself during the PSP that they want to hire 700 pilots in 2012 only.
Hope that helps with the math. |
Is it true that they recruit cadet pilot with just 200-250 hours regardless of the flight school (or flight academy:hmm:) attended?
|
License Authentication Form
What about the FAA website, just go there and you will be able to have your authentication letter, my friend did it as he has been requested the same.
Theres nothing you can print off an faa website. Qatar has a form that needs to be signed and stamped and according to the faa they refuse to sign any form thats not theirs. Theres gotta be a loop hole somewhere for US pilots. |
Are you really too lazy to read the full mail :
Please note that some of the Civil Aviation Authorities (CAA) will have their own formats or might seek that the request comes directly from the Qatar Civil Aviation Authority (QCAA). Good luck reading your FCOM... |
Friendly answer gdukkoq...hopefully they won't welcome you like that at QR...all the best.

Good luck reading your FCOM... I remember you were inundating us with your frustration as to why QR has not contacted you about your status. Have you forgotten how far you have come? :rolleyes: You, of all people, should not thumb your nose at other people who come hear looking for answers! := At the very least, show some appreciation and understanding what other people are experiencing by offering the same level of guidance you have receive yourself. If you can't do that, do us all a favor and relieve us of your arrogant nature.:cool: |
av8tordude :D:D:D
@etravis82 Lots of people take the slightest chance to show arrogance when they are at ease and while they are not in the heat of the moment! They just forget how annoying and stupid their comments were early in the days! What they don't really understand is that things go beyond the understanding of plain English! You were here to ask a valid question and to get answers from people who have been in your position one day and have had the experience! I wish I could give you an answer..but my license is not an FAA one! However, you can communicate with your joining coordinator and let her know what difficulties your are facing in this regard. They are very helpful in such cases. Good luck mate!:ok: |
@ETravis
I emailed our POI (large regional airline) and asked for his help with a matter like this. I drafted a letter for his sig, confirming my qualifications and position at the airline. He was happy to sign it. |
.
Guys, were all in the same boat. Some already more advanced some not. At the end all more or less experienced aviators,with different reasons for a change.be polite and respectful and remember where"you" coming from!
Just my 50 cents |
For those who may be interested, I applied for the FO position (not type rated): My timeline from application to joining:
Application sent: Aug 25 Interview invitation: Sep 27 Interview Date: Nov 08 Success notice: Dec 06 Aircraft Assignment: Feb 29 (A320) Joining Date: Apr 29 |
Qatar airman medical
I've heard that the medical is based off of the JAR medical. Wondering if anyone could offer any insight into the medical. In particular I'm concerned about the eye exam. If first hand info is available it would be much appreciated. Also, how often does the medical need to be renewed and why do they ask you to show up with a fresh medical. Thanks all!
|
my apologize the way I replied even though it was only directed to etravis82, because he received the mail like some of us.
But good luck anyway, and for those waiting hold tight, it is indeed very frustrating, I waited 4 months for the contract... hope to see u in DOH ! |
Gdukkog,
Shouldn't post that to anybody. Especially not you! Go back a few pages and look at how you were moaning on here. That guy will do fine in QR, good luck to you here though. Good Day. |
Medical
Lobsterexplosion:
The medical is just a pain, but it is doable. If I might offer a suggestion, do NOT use the doctor at the Al Alhi hospital. Use the other facility (can't remember the name). You will pass using either one, but the equipment at the Al Alhi hospital seems to be a bit flaky and the doctor will send you off to several specialists to have them sign you off. It takes time and is a bit stressful, but have not heard of anyone not passing, and there are some over 55 doing an initial. You will need cash to pay for the medical examinations. It may cost up to 1,500 QAR depending if you get sent off to some specialists. Submit all bills to the fleet secretary and EVENTUALLY they will be paid. The medical requires two visits to the hospital/clinic. It is early in the process (first week) so transportation is provided. The second visit is to cover the results and have the doctor sign off the aviation form for your license. A copy of this must go to the fleet secretary when you turn in your receipts. The eye examination is no worse than anything experienced in other exams. Once again, when arriving here, have access to a fair bit of cash. If you bring US Dollars, they must be printed since 2007 or they may be rejected (as I found out at the hotel). US Dollars exchange at a fixed rate. The first 10 days are very, very busy. Water and rest, as much as you can for the more senior chaps. For the younger lads... party on :ok: (though you may find the prices in the bar a bit daunting). |

JAR ATPL
Hello,
Does Qatar Airways require the MCC and JAR ATPL exams before being invited to the interview or pilots can do the interview before submitting the required documents? |
You do require an MCC and a Frozen ATP in order to get contacted/shortlisted by Qatar Airways. You must hold at least frozen ATPL to get invited to the assessment. but not necessarily an MCC. I've met many who have been invited to the assessment before they've done their MCC. However, the MCC is still a main requirement before joining. Also it would be for your own benefit guys if you have the MCC beforehand as it will enrich your knowledge and CRM during both the interview and the sim ride! Some interview questions are really based on your CRM knowledge and experience. All the best:ok: |
...would Mr Chuck Yeager do for them?...don't think so..he hasn't 2000 hours over 40 tons!..just 22000 on fighters with 65000 feet initial climb capabilities!....anyway, wrong forum...cheers :E
|
@ 777 aviator
it was the case when you could get your MCC after induction. You are right on that. But now, thats not the case. You need to have MCC and FATP OR just ATP to be called/shortlisted.
|
Hey there!
I had the interview early Feb... still waiting for an answer! :) I applied as S/O ab initio (200hrs FT). Anyone here who also had the interview on the same date and still waiting for a feedback from them? Cheers! |
Joining in may, applied as FTSO, but now I have FO requirements, anyone else with similar experience ?
|
Need on honest answer!
Hi everyone,
I have a short question. I'm around 50 hours short (flight time) for one of requirements for fast track second officer. Should I wait to apply or is it OK if I still go ahead and apply? (I'm currently not flying anymore) I would appreciate for an honest answer??? |
Hi.
Been on the selection for S/O on Feb. 12th. 787 SIM. Still no answer ! :/ i haven't heard anything ever since... |
Any different contract
Hi guys, I was wondering if somebody knows any recent hired with TR in A320, that got placed in the A330 or 777, that way they have to sing the bond, just asking...thanks..cheers

Hello all,
I understand when joining Qatar Airways crew are provided with uniform. I've also read on here that flight bags, shoes and company belts are provided? Is this the case? If so, are the company flight bags and shoes a compulsory part of the uniform or can we use our own? My beloved flight bag has been with me for yonks:ok::ok: What make are the bags and shoes? (Just interested !) Good luck to those awaiting good news and thanks for any information. Cliff. |
Bags and Shoes
The flight bag is made by Delsey and is a roller board lockable flight bag. I looked at the Delsey website but could not find this model so suspect it may be custom made. The bag includes a computer sleeve and gadget container. Not bad but definitely not a nostalgia design.
Shoes are Hush Puppies. I have always worn shoes from another manufacturer as I believe in comfort over design. However, after wearing the allotted shoes, find them very comfortable AND security scanner safe. Very conventional with soft souls. Uniform doesn't look too bad though try EVERYTHING on before taking it away, even the belt and the tie tacks (some don't secure properly). Not been here long enough to know if they expect the issued flight bag to be used on the line, but have seen some well worn bags that I am SURE the airline wishes were put to rest :) . |
Thanks for the info Flytdeck ! :ok:
Are overnight bags provided for layovers as well? Many thanks Cliff |
Receiving the good news
Guys, I just want to share the great news, after 9 weeks I got an email a few minutes ago telling me that I made it, for a F/O position, so happy at the moment, just have to wait a few more weeks for the formal offer. Thanks again for the good info received here, good luck to everybody, cheers
