A330s
 

Does anyone know when Oman Air are expecting to receive the first of the five A330s they have on order? I know it's supposed to be 2009 but is it imminent?

What is the different Oman Air and Airlines in India?
 

I heard lot's of expat from India were joined Oman Air, any different their management style and the airlines in India:) is it true that the Flight Ops. Director appointed a Fleet Captain on B737 then sack him down in few weeks, how stupid is he:confused:

duckknocker,
I'm 100% agree my friend, the scotsman is stupid, but did you think the one who appointed him in that position, he is more "smart" than the scotsman:{ taking account he was informed by locals and expats about the scotsman, so what is the different of mangement with India,:ugh:

The winds of change are blowing my friend.....for the better!!

winds of change are blowing
 

flying fijian, you believe that as long as the stupid man still there:\ no hope man, except MEMO TO PILOTS every weeks, I'm not there just 50 minutes away from MCT but got friends there, so I know the situation:= you have no choice just hope for the 330 to come

Hi!

I was interested in applying at Oman, but it looks like you need time in an ATR or 737.

I don't have time in either airplane. All my other CV credentials are very good (ATPL, 3000 Jet, 1100+ Jet PIC, etc.).

Should I bother applying, or is there a minimum requirement for time in the ATR/737???

Thanks!

[QUOTE]what did the DMO do to you!!![/QUOTE]
nothing man at not to me just wait for you turn, like I explain before I'm only 50 minutes from MCT and have friends there, this is a forum and free to post, heard also that WY will try to find somebody who tell the true like that British FO, btw did you applied to FlyDubai???:ok:

rumour's are between the pilots al ready or you may ask your pilot association if you have one:ok: how bad is my english to compare with the america latin pilot's there?? we still level 4 just enought for flying not to colonialized other people:{

still many are in Dubai last year for assesment SIM:ok:

Hey SORESORE,

idont think you need to justify yourself to this bloke,....besides i think its great that they are try to discourage everyone from comming here,like you say the more that leave the better.We need more of the cool latinos and those great island boys instead .let everyone else go to FLY DUBAI,or will it be FLY ABU DHABI???

DP.

Hey SORESORE
 

what can they do except to give the best parking place:\

I believe you have no choice at your age, you better stay enjoy your night flight and the best roster, hope they will upgrade you to A330:ugh:

I see Oman Air are looking for A330 drivers.

So, One question leaving out all the "attitude"

Is it a good company to work for ???.

Well, as I uderstend the only 330 rated pilots thet they are looking for are the omanis at Gulf Air. The rest of the pilots are going to be promoted from the NG fleet wish is a fair reward for their loyalty to the company, many of the local pilots heare have WB experience from Gulf Air or WY 310s from other times. Besides its more easy and cheaper to look for NG pilots than 330s.

Aaaah........HostyMosty, seems like you've got a big bunch of sour grapes hanging over your head!!!
And as for the pilot's committee not being recognised by anyone, it would seem that it was recognised enough to have a certain Scotsman kicked out for his unjustified lewd remarks!!:D
It would seem as far as being ripped apart in court and the worldwide press, that mate, you may be the one having SWEET DREAMS.:zzz:

soresore
 

ops good for you mate!!!:ok: that' better than C150 thats you used to be in your country:}, othewise you will die as pilot with no WB experience:\ only Oman Air will give this chance for non WB experience guys,:D I'm here with 398 tons MTOW so don't worry about me:ok:

Dubai still Dubai for expat pilot we still here got our salary but anyway better than MQ in Muscat, if you are expat:)

How many layovers away from MCT could a 737 pilot expect each month?

Approximately how many "up all night flights" each month?

soresore
 

FD doesn't take Commander from 398 t driver:ugh:

get your time at A330 than apply to big airlines they might consider you, or go back to your C150:{

Hi everyone,

Any chance to get more information about t&c in Oman Air on B737 for DEC.
And I would appreciate any information on the cost of living in Oman.

PM me if you can.

Thanks before hand.

Wohow! Oman Air is alive and kicking!

And the pilot forum is of an even lower standard than the Qatar Airways one! CONGRATULATIONS!:ugh:

I would also like to add my name to the list of people trying in vain to get any sensible answers about life in Oman Air from this thread. Perhaps you ladies could take your handbag fights elsewhere on the off chance that a grown up may wish to post a useful reply?

Any idea when the first A330 is actually scheduled to arrive and how rapidly are the subsequent deliveries going to come? How much does it cost to live there (as someone has already asked) and why are they advertising both directly and also through agencies for these pilot positions? What's the difference? What are they like to work for, how much annual leave do you get and what staff travel deals do you get? Anything else we should know?

Thanks

I too would like to hear some factual information regarding T&C. There are lots of folks out there just looking for steady work to support their families and Oman Air might be an option for them.

For all the folks wanting to find out about life in oman,all i can say is,its a great place for family .Cost of living is alot cheaper than most other gulf states,not much in terms of nightlife but we have a few little spots that will quench your thirst and fill up your tummy with great eats.As for Oman Air,flying is great,not too many layovers to look forward to if thats what you are after.Probably spend two nights away from home every month and flying hours vary from between 45 to 70 hrs a month more in some cases.Most of the flights are to India in the middle of the night and you could expect to get up to 4 or 5 a month.
More new destinations comming up with the itroduction of the new NG's to the fleet as well as the A330's in a few months.
All in all its a great little place to be,and the money is not too bad..

Hope this helps guys and gals...

Anyone invited for an assessment recently?
Is Oman considering efis time?

Datepalm,

Thank you very much for giving us an idea of life with Oman Air.

Does anyone have any info again re: A330 hire there? Would be very interested as I hear Muscat one of the best Mid East locations.

Thanks

Thanks Datepalm,

Is it possible to throw some figures in. How much for 45-70 hours of flying you would expect to get a month. What are the other benefits you get( house, schools, etc).

thanks once again

omanair ATR
 

Hi, I'm an unemployed ATR rated pilot, and I wish to have some info on ATR job in Omanair such as roster, payment, leave, general working condition, and so on. Is there someone who can help???
thanks:confused:

Tried to fill in the on line application form but it doesn't do what it asks you to do. Any body got a bit of time in between flights to look up the e-mail of the DFO or CP?

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

Can someone post the Oman Air B737 Captain salary package please?

Thanks in anticipation.

737 Captain
3550 RO plus 575 RO for housing plus and average of 300 RO allowance.

1RO= $2.6

These numbers are not exact but pretty close.

ATR.

It seems that they are only hiring F.O's. They fill all their captain slots. Not sure about the pay.

Also to be an F.O. for the 737 you need 750 hours on type but it can change any time depending on demand. You need NG time but I don't know how much.

The English and American schools are expensive here. Even though the company pays 75% of the school, you still have to pay another 200RO extra per month (estimate) per child. The schools seem to be top of the line from what I heard.

The company also gives you health insurance, lost of medical insurance (new), bonus when leaving company, 42 days of vacations a year, one airline ticket for you and the rest of your family to your country of origin, agreements with many airlines to fly, 4000RO in furniture money* and provide dry cleaning to uniforms. I might forgot something in any case feel free to add...

*Furniture money is giving as a 5 year loan. If your stay in the company for 5 years the furniture is yours. If not for every year you have been discount 20% of the total.

Muscat for being a place in the middle east, is not so bad. I could say is a pleasant place to live but you have to understand that this is the middle east and the culture here is very different from other countries. People are nice and the city has a good geographical location.

Atr Fo
 

I'd be pretty much interested in an ATR FO position but can't get any update on my application, is there any chance i can get updated through a phone call, if yes whom should I ask to talk to?
Thank you for the help.

Hello guys,

Just spoke in person to the head of the ATR 72 division last week.

Requirement are quite very simple: 1000h on type for a first officer position!! Was hard to believe when I heard that but that's the fact guys...

Another hint: They are expecting some Embraer 190 to join the fleet so they are going to look for type rated Emb190 drivers pretty soon...

Good luck y'all...

Alex

1000 hrs on ATR for FO? :suspect: Now I understand what they meant by pilot shortage...
