139 Pilot

[S76driver]

Morning all.

Bit of a long shot but, does anyone know of anyone looking for a 139 driver anywhere?

[spinwing]

Mmmm....

Why? .... is there one lost?






(why not try Abu Dhabi Aviation????)

[helimutt]

Why? North Denes not living up to expectations?

Good a time as any to jump I guess.

Try CHC, apparently they start operations with 139 in Kazkstan

Yes it's living up to my expectations but keeping my options open.

Been in touch with ADA, filled in the 7 forms but I don't think they need anyone at present...plus by the sounds of the rumour mill I'm not the only one thats been in touch with them!

Also just noticed advert in "Flight" re 139 driver for VVIP flight based in Dubai.

Thanks guys....saw the Gulf heli one yesterday....auto responder says a min of 2 months for application process.

Dubai job needs 3000 hrs, I fall a bit short of that.

From what I hear, you apply to Gulf Helicopters with a 139 ticket, the response time will be nearer two days than two months.

Gulf helis are indeed looking for AW139 drivers. They have just secured a new contract in Libya with two 139's and will need extra crews ASAP.

Try calling the Chief Pilot, John Toon, directly and it's likely to yield better results than the online process. That way the numptys across the road in HR aren't involved until the final part of the process.

Thanks RH. Someone else is already on the case for me, but I will try and get hold of him.
