I'm sorry, didn't realise there was problem with being well informed, maybe we should just keep it to unsubstantiated rumour to keep you happy Aw139!
Given that your friend works there you must be equally well informed. Touché

The truth is fine with me but my understanding is that all the pilots that have gone from Haughey Air over the last few years, have been there own making in one way or another ?
I could list them but that would be totally unprofessional I think

I have no idea what you guys are talking about but it reminds me of what seems to be a truism -
One pilot's heaven is another pilot's hell.
Hopefully everyone ends up happy.

Training Captains & line Pilots for BOND
I am looking for some advice concerning the latest job advertisement for Bond aviation group:
Training Captains & Line Pilots Job in UK - Jobsite
Currently working as military instructor pilot on CH-53 (heavy transport helicopter) in German Armed Forces I am planing my conversion to the civil world. I am still totally unexperienced concerning the civil helicopter offshore business and following this forum with high interest.
My question: Does Bond recruit also non UK-citizen ? On their website I got the feeling that they are kind of "UK only".

Thanks for the encouragement !
Did a 4-month tour with a British infantry battalion in Mazar-e Sharif, Afghanistan back in 2002.
As the only German (and their only rotorcraft expert) I was assigned as a german liasion. Lot of experience back then...
And a couple of (not to bad) nazi jokes...
With an JAR ATPL (H)-IR MCC in my pocket and the experience of a couple of unanswered applications I wonder whether my german origin or my military background is the main cause for not being successful so far with my transition in the civil world.
By the way I like Monty Python !

However, you will be in the queue behind pilots who already have a) the required type rating or b) offshore experience. Your 'heavy type' experience and instructor background will be very well regarded though, putting you ahead of others in the queue.
Additionally, you say that you are 'currently working as military instructor pilot'. How long until you will be leaving the military? The requirement for offshore positions is often very immediate (ie yesterday!) so some operators might not be able to wait months for you to leave your current position.
You can't be all bad then...

Thanks for the info.
I definitly lack the offshore experience and the type-rating. But I will work on the later.
Leaving military in 4 month and I will give myself 12 month to get a copilot seat with the "big boys" (S92, AW139, EC225). I am a fan of Sikorsky though.
If I fail, I have to earn my money with my master's degree in business engineering (2nd best idea).
But just started to look around. I have really not much to complain about so far.
Let's see what the future brings !
Again thanks for the advice!

Has anyone else heard back from Mr Akinbobola about the Bristow Cadet Pilot roles in Nigeria? And the first round of selections in January at the Sheraton, Lagos. His email ends with @bristowgroup.com but having not worked in Africa, or interviewed there I hope someone help in verifying it's credibility, or otherwise.
Thanks
Thanks
