@superdunkaroos

They actually are looking for the 4th batch, Min 10 people per batch so already 30 singed up for this slavery contract. yes its confirmed by one of my friend that around 7 are already flying for Lion air, 5 more will join later this year. These despertos are earning 2000 USD after paying this much... way to go to degrade this proffesion

I just learnt from a friend that when he spoke to CAE about Lion Air hiring, they mentioned to him saying that all hiring had been stopped since 2-3 months now and that no one should be hiring for Lion Air except them.

which means MSD and the likes of Blue Star Aviation are hit frauds.

Verify from CAE like Parul and Sandra who do indigo exams to verify this information again.

@Pulkdahulk

I wont say if X ,Y or Z agency is fraud or not...but Pilots sent by MSD have completed CBT and are currently on their way as being mandatory observatory for required number of routes.

I have a friend who has completed CBT at LION AIR .
CAE hiring for LION AIR is being going on since 2008 so can not say about the continuity of it or not.But yes MSD has sent around 10 pilots from India in April.

MSD is taking huge amount for this program ...its same as DESI version of Eaglejet program.But as my friend is doing this program...i wont say it is FRAUD....lets see what happens in months to come for this MSD program.

Ohh about Blue Star Aviation - Yes they are BIG time FRAUDS and i can state bloody every CON working for this agency....

PS: Not defending MSD program nor Slating BSA ....just stating what i know from my friend .....

Johny Boy - i have a friend who has done the same MSD program and is in vegas right now for his 737 program with Lion Air. He says the program is genuine.

Just at the moment of time, CAE today said to this friend of mine that Lion Air has not been hiring 2-3 months now so no one should actually be doing interviews for the airline and that includes MSD Aviation.

Anyways,

I really doubt that Lion Air has stopped hiring. They have received 4 new 900Er`s last month and they are going to continue with as many pilots finishing their contracts and getting out. I have called Eagle Jet and they say that there seems to be a problem with visa rules or something and so they have put their program on hold. Not sure about CAE, but I can say one thing for sure. Neither Parul nor radhika can say anything about Lion Air coz the recruitment for Lion Air is being taken care of by CAE Amsterdam and any info from Amsterdam would be credible. Last I heard (really not sure though) was that CAE is hiring only JAA License holders and those who are European.

What a mess.
Can we please get some information straight here?

-Direct employment with Lion Air HR, or is it through a 3rd level shonky provider?

-Terms and conditions look very weak & not competitive, in the current Asian environment for experienced flight crew. Is that a Monthly Pay, fortnightly or weekly?

- One base only - JKT?

-105-110hrs/month flight time???

Thanks

Would appreciate it very much!

A friend who flies in Indo told me recently that Lion Air hires through Eagle Jet. Maybe it's not an exclusive agency ? MSD, CAE, Rishworth etc may be in the same category.

hi Mozes,
The roster is about 95-110 hours a month. Depending on how the scheduling works . Officially we cannot 'request' flights anymore, since this was the case for most of the guys who had connections with planning.

cigarette money for the win!

Thanks for that link DragonFly-ing.
Explains it well and hasn't changed since I was that way in '06, so not my gig now! They're going to have big trouble expanding into Australia with shonky practices like that mentioned....playing with danger and many lives.
Yeh, Happy (safe) Landings mas

Lion Air job info

Greetings to all!
I am curious on to apply/geting an interview/job offer at Lion Air.
I have an FAA ATPL, B737 Type Rating and previous airline experience.
So how does one go about apply/getting an interview/job offer with Lion Air?

Thanks!
