Information request

Hi guys and gals,

I saw the mention of WAS (World Airline Services) a couple of times in this thread and was wondering if those that had an agreement with them could step forward (mp) for contract details et al.

I made due diligence with my "homework" already on the topic but need extra nuggets of info for research.

Thanks in advance

Why is OZ214 so far from wannabes' minds when they think of flying for OZ?

Deadheading on any of their flights?

Any updates on the Asiana interview process?

What's the best company to work with? Aviationcv or Rishwort?

Looking at the 767 contract with Asiana

Also came across the Asiana 767 Captain by CRW (Crew Resources Worldwide) via AviationCV.com and also on CAE Parc. Is this still worth looking into? Have any of the old issues been resolved, or are the CRM and general company attitude still poor towards expats (docking pay etc)? What are the rosters like for the 767? Any information would be appreciated.

The screening itself will involve the following:

- Simulator Check
- Medical Check
- Interview (Documents Check)

Simulator Check:

PREPARATION ENG START (Abnormal start)
NORMAL T/O
RNAV APPROACH - RNAV RWY33R APP & L/D
REJECTED TAKEOFF
ENGINE FAILURE AFTER V1
SINGLE ENGINE APPROACH & LANDING
VISUAL APP
NON-NORMAL ITEMS
W/S, TCAS during CLB
DIRECT LAW (2ADR/IR, dual HYD, 2SFCC fail, 2FAC)
LANDING - Cross wind landing (WX by IP)
PAX EVACUATION - PAX EVACUATION
OTHERS - Standard procedure and call-outs

Medical Check:

The following are some of the medical tests that are carried out:

Blood Pressure, Pulse Rate
Tympanometry, Audiometry
Visual Acuity, IOP Tonometry, Fundus, Colour Vision, Heterophoria, Field of Vision
Spirometry
Chest X-Ray
EKG
Exercise Treadmill Test
Abdominal Sonograph
Electro Encephalography
Blood & Urine Test
Interview with Doctor

Note: If they discover anything abnormalities, it does not mean you fail the exam. They will ask you to get it cleared in your own country at your own expense before you can be hired. Once you get medically cleared by your doctor, send the documents to the company for further review and If accepted, you will be hired. For those who are worried about the BMI, there are guys who had abnormal BMI and was accepted but was told to start a diet to get their BMI within acceptable limits.

Interveiw:

The interview is short and informal. Asiana will want to know a little about you and your experiences. They will ask the reason you would like to join Asiana and ask you do you have any questions about their company. There weren't any Asiana Pilots present during the interview and no technical question asked. They will check your documents to make sure they are acceptable for the civil and aviation authorities. The documents listed below.

Passport
ATPL
Licence verification letter
ICAO English Certificate (if any)
Valid Class 1 Medical
No Incident/Accident Record
No Criminal/Police Record
Most Recent SIM/Route Check Record (LPC/OPC)
Logbook
CRM Record (if any)
10 Passport size Photographs

Thanks, great detail

Thank you @av8tordude, very detailed and informative for me, even tho that was specifically aimed at the A320 process. I would like to think that the 767 process would be similar, if you or anyone familiar would be able to say?

Thanks again!

Ground course is like any other airline. All exams are required to passed with 80%
You will have to take an ATPL conversion checkide ( SIM - LPC), and if you are not successful, you MAY be given another chance at company discretion.
There is a Company Checkride and Gov't (MOLIT) checkride. Company Checkride, if not successful, may be given again at company discretion. However the Gov't checkride is a 1-time event.

The airline provides materials during training and 5 days ground school to assist with passing the CAA (MOLIT) exam for the Korean Pilot License. If you are not successful on two (2) attemts, the company send you home to study more and if you want to try again, it will be at your own expense. However, if you are not successful, you will not be given another chance.

Training is rigorous, particularly for the Captains since some of the FO are not experience. The company rely heavily on the Captains for their experience. During line training, it has been emphasis the company is not too focus on Expats flying skills and experience (more secondary), but heavily on Asiana Procedures and Call-outs. Because of the language barriers that exist between Korean Pilots and Expats is the reason why I think they extensively hit hard on SOP and Call-outs. This is the "Common" language that MUST exist while operation as a crew for CRM. You will have 16-sectors (Training), 2-sectors (Company Check), and 2-sectors (Gov't Check)

Thank you very much av8tordude.

Are you a CPT or a FO ? Did nobody got technical questions during the interview ?

It seems that the training is the most difficult part to pass.
For the exams do you have example questions to study,quizzes like for the atpl ? Or is it everything based on "you study this" and then we exam your knowledge?

Good luck for you gvt check and wish you safe flights in Asiana

Gday everyone,

Quick question

Is there any way around the 4 year First Officer experience requirment needed to apply? Is this pretty much a solid requriment for licensing with the Korean Civil Aviation authorities?

Have they been lenient with these in past?

Any inputs will be appreciated?

Unfortunately, its the Authority who imposed the Requirement.

No tech questions during the interview. Its more like a casual meeting and presenting all the documents. And making sure that all documents are valid to facilitate your work visa permits.

once you get in, Monday is always the 1st day of joining so the coming saturday is always the Airlaw examination. If you fail this one, you have to wait for the next months exam date.
So the 1st week will involved Airlaw reviews during Grnd school.
the next set of checks throughout the course you will expect involves the ff.
Sim check
Cat 2/3 check in the Sim
Company Line check after IOE(12 to 18 sectors)
Molit Knowledge test(with the local Aviation authority)
Molit Flight check (Final , prior release to the Line)

depending on which fleet you are in, training to completion may take 2 and a half to 4 months.
