Would you mind letting us know what sort of experience level you have?

KLMInstructor 5th April 2005 07:56

I know 2 guys going that have just completed an integrated course, both 250 hours but with degrees in mechanical engineering. The are both going to the London selection late April.

Holland 5th April 2005 12:39

250 hours = 185 hours

Interview on the 21 and 22 of april

Lil' Pilot 5th April 2005 13:43

@ Holland,

Congrats with the invitation. It's a great opportunity! Do you also have some kind of degree? That would confirm that they prefer applicants with some sort of university degree.

Anyway, best of luck!!

sonny 5th April 2005 15:29

220 hrs + degree in Business

housewife 5th April 2005 17:48

Also i applied, have 2 uni degrees 1 seince and 1 mechanical engineer. Also my husband is flying for qatar airways, so imliving in Doha. Have froozen ATP, with mcc and everything only just 250h, but that was not enough, they told us that they lowered the age limit to 27 during selektion. Can somebody confirm that?

Wath do they want lots of degrees and 21 years old?

But wish everybody goodluck,think good, here is not heaven.

Qatari515 5th April 2005 23:15

Maybe they want you to be able to write english in a proper way????

I am sorry but this was just too bad...:hmm:

dashti 6th April 2005 05:30

reply to: housewife

from the beginning it was 29 years old regards to cadet pilots. I'am not sure maybe they lowered the age to 27. And the priority for degree holder & experience pilot then Min. education i.e Secondary school

Holland 6th April 2005 07:47

Details from both of us

1e both KLM Flight Academy students.
2e both approx. 185 hours.
3e Bachelor and Master degree (both Technical studies).

housewife 6th April 2005 10:03

Thanks for help qatari 515,

but english is not big thing here if i listen to the anouncements i hear from cockpit!Hope you do better. Anyway I just got sick of everything here, so they can have there job!

Sorry that english is not my mother language and didnt study any languages.

vfenext 6th April 2005 16:23

Qatari515 you arrogant nob! Show respect for a lady who had the courage to post here. As someone who has english as a first language I suggest you read back over your own post, the english is not correct. Your PA's must be a laugh a minute. You obviously fit in nicely in the QR culture..

Skyg 6th April 2005 16:41

I think they're heading for the wrong type ...
 
I'm sorry but i think that you Europeans Kids that never worked before, as I can see.... gonna last in Doha as much as a year, if you do.

You'll make your basic hours and you'll surely flee to a western place, to have a pleasent life.

Good Choice QR! ... Let's see how much this people last!....

-------------------------------
Well for your information at least European kids as you mentioned them have been selected from over 2000 applicants.

I hate de-motivated people who try to de-motivate the others.
That's another reason I ask the successful applicants to PM me.
because so many de-motivated people will spoil it.

GOOD LUCK

Holland,

You mentionned


End of may BA selection
However, I have read on BA web site :


Currently all future British Airways pilots are recruited through our Direct Entry Pilot Scheme This is only for those who already have flying expertise, either gained with HM Services or in the commercial aviation industry.
:ooh: :ooh:

How can you do to take BA selection?

Lil' Pilot 7th April 2005 15:49

Maybe KLS arranged something for it's graduated students with BA.

Holland 8th April 2005 07:04

BA selected I think 5 Flight academies all over Europe. KLM Flight Academy is one of them. Currently around 20 students of the KLM Flight Academy are waiting to go to London for the selection proces. BA also anounced that they need more pilots and again selected the KLM Flight Academy to ask for more students from the Academy.

Skyg 9th April 2005 05:53

Don't Misunderstand things...
 
Hey Qr133,

For god sake stop being officialist with QR...

All of us know that is one the worst companies to work for, because of its lack of Human Resources and CRM.

I didn't wish anything bad to this guys, what I SAID is that they are not gonna last long in QR...

Simply, because EUROPEANS DO NOT last long in QR.

WHOEVER has the chance to leave, even for less money, DOES IT!

Just that. A fact. :hmm:

Qatari515 14th April 2005 15:48

Face it, only 27 years old and yet you have allready all these things going for you....

Besides that, if all this is truth, what the h**** are you looking for in QR?????

Bringing this topic back on top!

If I am correct, the interviews in London where this week? Anyone care to share some experiences? Did you get any additional information about the scheme?

Greetz,

Lil' (curious)

Qatar Cadet Pilot/Second Officer
 
does any one know what a HPL Certificate is?

concordino 6th June 2005 09:35

I think you might be referring to " Human Performance and Limitations" ATPL subject.

Good Luck

QR n' EK cadet
 
hello
know that this page is for pilots but cant find answers elsewhere so hope u might b able to help

am a girl looking for flying school...heard that if u graduate from emirates flying school they'll secure u a job in ek ....same goes for qatar flying school n' qr

true??

if so is there any prejudice towards sex of pilots in this regions

thx a lot

Cerberus 11th October 2005 07:16

EK has no sex prejudice at all. We've been going over 20 years now but have yet to find a women in the entire world that is suitable to operate as Flight Deck! Having said that EK have had some girls pass the selection but the powers that be decided that they would not be in the best interests of the airline. So as I said no prejudice at all.

As to cadets, there are a couple of national girls in the pipeline but I wouldn't count on the floodgates opening anytime soon.

Barcadi 11th October 2005 17:34

what about foreign girl want to study there....any chance??
thx

cirrus81 11th October 2005 18:25

RE:
 
There is only one flying school in dubai, emirates flying services. and i am not sure if they accomodate foriegn students...and if you graduate from there doesnt mean emirates will take you as a pilot with only 200 hours as fresh graduate...regardless of u being girl or boy or any other airline for that matter..
its pretty expensive too....

Barcadi 11th October 2005 19:03

thx for all replies
for QR i heard they'll take fresh graduates into the airline if u study at Qatar Aeronautical College

true??

icelady 11th October 2005 21:04

hey!
I'm also interested to get some info. what kind of details do you need to know?

Barcadi 12th October 2005 09:43

yes what details u need to know

qatar second officer entry
 
Hi, i apply 1 month ago as a cadet pilot with qatar airways and i recieve a mail 2 weeks after saying that they concluded a shortlisting of cadet pilots and they suggest to me to apply later when they will advertise again.

does anyone receive the same e-mail,and i don't know if it's a good thing to get this e mail or it's the normal procedure to respond to all applying pilots.

regards!!

Qatar airways cadet pilot/second officer Requirnments
 
Hi I am recently graduated Modular CPL/IR person with an expat upbringing, lived in Qatar from one to thirteen.

I have been reading the thread running on

"Qatar airways cadet pilot/second officer holding pool"

I would like to know is this scheme one that a low hour pilot such as myself; my total is approx 250hrs, completed my IR 12/12/05 all my training has been with CABAIR College of air Training could apply to?

I am aware that airlines in the Middle East are booming, and that new aircraft orders are at an all time high. However I am also aware that the majority look for a high level of experiance and so are normally out of the reach of someone like myself. I am also equally aware that the number of people at this experiance level must be reducing (at least I assume) and so a scheme such as Qatar airways makes sense.
Would appreciate any constructive and relevant information on this scheme and others like it that people might have, especially those currently with Qatar Airways.

Thanks for your time.

portsharbourflyer 17th January 2006 20:21

Yes, alot of the candidates interviewed for the second officer scheme were low hour pilots.

The requirements in the advert last year, were ICAO recognised CPL/IR with frozen ATPL from a recognised school, under 29, preference given to candidates with tertiary education in science or engineering.

However it is not a "continuous" scheme. The last time the scheme was advertised was in Flight International january 2005 (interviews held in April and November). I don't know if Qatar will be running the another second officer scheme, one assumes if they do, they will advertise in flight international again.
