This may be a little stupid - but do you have to be type qualified to go as DE FO on the freighters - or are the candidates trained to the position?

No you dont. Min requirements are ATPL incl 1000hrs jet, air transport ops (and equiv......1000hrs mil fast jet etc)

There is no requirement to be 747 type rated.

Danger

As is reflected in the command failure rate of..what is it now, 12 failures out of the last 14 to try? The stampede to get away from the 'F' commands grows louder every day........

About the requirements, I have 4100 TT, 3000 jet, 1100 Jet command flying intercontinental and no, not a 744 rating.
Both Singapore mainline as cargo have absolutlely no interest in my humble little person.

Are the 747 Classics at FRA likely to be replaced by the new 400s? I have heard there are some very unhappy bunnies in Germany. Similarly, is there likely to be an expansion of the LHR freighter contingent?
