Just wondering out loud. Did those personnel that sent their packages in to ADA after the recent recruiting drive get any reply about their contracts yet?

Cheers

Do NOT forget to pack your 'sense of humour' and take plenty of extra 'patience' with you !!!

Good Luck ...

Inschallah.......Thatīs the way it works down there....

Iīll work there once a month for a couple of days, not flying ( SLF ), if you can adopt yourself to the habits, you will probably have a nice time, if not, you will hate it....

Sell your parka and invest in some 45C plus proven clothes.....

All the best!

Be prepared to sit around and enjoy being paid for doing nothing......I waited 3 weeks to start my sim training and I'm sure it will be backed up for awhile

Try to stay in Abu Dhabi for as long as possible, its much better than KSA


PS heloguy 412 I tried responding to your PM a couple times, but for some reason it wouldn't work

Got an email from HR saying I'm going to have to wait a bit. Apparently Sim is down for maintenance. Trying to get to Dallas for the sims at FSI.

Cheers,
