Chester, CIMA is the "old fashion" Spanish name for the JAA Medical Class1 Certificate. Afterthat, I'm sorry to tell you guys, but I suppose the advertising job at the INAER webpage is already expired since they had lost the search and rescue contract!! It`s very last news, and nobody indeed knows how it'll be the near future for the pilots-engineers-staff, so don't waste your time with this advetising. (my advise)

Maybe with the new contract will come a decent amount of training, experience and MCC CRM.....

What they mean is that you need a valid medical certificate.
CIMA is the name of the military Aeronautica Medical Center.
Long time ago it was the only one avalaible for pilots so colloquially pilots in Spain we call the Medical Certificate "CIMA"

Any valid JAA medical certificate should be valid

A good friend of mine has been called in for an interview-and is now looking for information about the job he has been offered (BEFORE going to the interview)..

The job was for "National Academy for Professional Training" (NAPT) in Doha/Qatar, flying AW139.
He has been flying the 139 as a Captain before (Offshore Operations), but has no experience as an Instructor.

What he knows so far:
Tax free salary, relocated living, accomodation, medical, travel home ticket.

Work should be in the "Al Udeid American Air Base" under Qatar Emiri Air Force.

Any information are welcome!

the qatar job is genuine - BUT... Aw years ago several colleagues of mine went to wotk for thi same outfit. they worked for 9 months and were NEVER paid - they constantly received promises, reassurances etc etc, but NO money. After between 6-9 months they all returned to the UK having been paid not a peeny. RThe outfit concerned (the same one you mention) said that they wouild be paid when it was 'good and ready' and that if they made noises they would be out of a job. Don't trust them as far as you could throw them.

Possibly. Word on the street is that there is a problem with getting the oil out of the ground and turning a profit.

Seems to be an issue with the "closed shop" mentality and the net result of the policy not allowing "expat experience and nous" through the door.

Google "The Brazil Cost" for a heads up. 65% local content etc. etc. etc.

"Still too much blah blah and not enough action"

I think "the cost" has made them reconsider if it is worth doing big investments.

AW139 IN QATAR

You mention the name of the company but has anyone verified the truth to the tumor? I personally believe this is not true . Some rumor mongers out to discredit a very good and reputable company.

AW 139

As Operations/Training Manager of National Academy for Professional Training in The State of Qatar, i would like to inform all that the post provided is not accurate in its content.

National Academy for Professional Training is for the first time since foundation in the year 2003 directly employing rotary wing pilots for a client in The State of Qatar. No contracts have been in place in the past for hire of rotary wing pilots with National Academy for Professional Training, therefor the information related to the hiring of rotary wing pilots years ago for a contract is incorrect.

There have been various discussions in the past for requirements of Sea King and Gazelle Pilots, which never moved any further than rumour phases, and again the hiring had not been directly via National Academy for Professional Training.

This contract/hiring process is dirtily with National Academy for Professional Training and 100% genuine.

Thanks

Full time instructor required

I've heard that there is a full time instructor position available at Bournemouth.
They are currently advertising on this site.

All the best.

Short-listed applicants should receive news of interview dates within a couple of weeks. Bear in mind it's Hari Raya Aidilfitri (Eid-ul-Fitr) this week so not much 'activity'.....

(It's Brunei Shell, not Shell Brunei, by the way )

Looking for a line on turbine work.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a line on my first turbine job. I've got roughly 1750 hours in a mix of R44 and H269 time with no turbine. I've tried the GOM operations (phi, bristow, and rlc) as well as a couple of new York tour operations. I do have my CFII as well as about 1000 hours doing commercial (non instructor) work.

Anyone have any ideas of companies to look into? Any lines on employers who don't advertise? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
