I contacted somebody there recently who should have at least a realistic idea as to whats going to happen.

From a Boeing point of view approx 100 next year, but literally 1000's the year after!

Things have slowed a lot for Boeing fleet. Those who attended selection early summer '13 have been told realistically no start before late Summer '14, and face the possibility of falling out the pool. But things change fast.

As others say, things will pick up significantly in future following the recent orders.

Fellas the majority of the recent orders don't arrive until after 2020, and then most are replacements for aircraft already in the fleet.
We have been told a fleet of 240 to 250 by 2020, and we have 212 now. I believe that when aircraft retirements are taken from aircraft deliveries next year the fleet only grows by four aircraft. It has been rumoured that recruitment will stay around the 250 per year mark with a pilot group of 5000 by 2020.
Things can change, but not until they decide what is happening WRT to staying at DXB or moving to DWC.

Hi guys,

Just recived invitation for interview process from ek, the matter is time periods are so soon even for the next week..

The situation is i would like to know is for 330 guys if they are planning to direct entry to 330 or ccq the people to 380?

i have 3750 hrs tt,480 hrs 330 rest 320 and 306..

Best regards

Most of your post does not make much sense.

You cannot ccq from one type to another as a new entrant to a company; you are required to do the full course, with no short-cuts.

Gehenna

Just mail to toulouse and ask them how to carry out a ccq program for new entry pilots.(if you dont have mail adress i might send you footprints lol) After company conversion you may attend to any kind of ccq program forsure.

On the otherhand,if smth does not make sense on you just disregard it ;)

Umitati, I have to also add that your posts make no sense. And if you really have an interview next week, I hope you make more sense in person for your sake.

Most if not all new hires are going directly onto the 380. Very little happening on the 777 until next year and even at that not much as they are over crewed in the new year due to loss of ULR .
Listen to what Don has said about the fleet plan. @50 additional between now and 2020. If you replace every 330 /772/773 with a 380 and add @50 380 I'm guessing that would be close to 70 mil pax (2020) compared to the 40 mil last year.
Has anyone heard of the 380 upgrade courses cxn'd

Sops

Thanks for kindly suggest,there are few options for interview dates,like 8-11 dec or 15-18 dec so i didnt mean that i have interview next week.just suprised that ek is offering interview like 8 days later?

And also i asked to get how ek is planning for future, didnt post for discussing ccq programs or how to act during interview?!?

So anyone knows how ek is planning 330 typed people?

Thanks for kindly answers about recruitment process..

Hey lorrypilot...what is your experience if you dont mind me asking...i've been shortlisted for the last 4 months so i was just wondering:ugh:

good luck

Gehenna,

CCQ's from one type to another is allowed as a new entrant in a new company, I did it from 320 to 340.

To those invited to Amsterdam next year...is it an invitation for a Pre-Selection Process or for the roadshow they are having in JAN 2014? just wondering if they would be doing PSP's after that...

hi
 

hi RjAgCR......
i have 3200 on A320.. and have been on the short list for 6 months.
best of luck for you amigo.

RjAgCR - I was invited to the PSP, not the roadshow.

Hi all,

Had an invitation for the selection for November 2013. For FO position. I'm Boeing. Late October got an email saying selection postponed as no simulators available during that period my interview was booked for. Anyone else got such an email. Said I will be advised. Keep updating details. :uhoh:

It's PSP1 in AMS during the same date of the roadshow or different dates?! does anyone know what SIM will they be using...just curious!:E I am shorlisted and still waitting for an invite...:ugh:
