Hi All,

I think this is my first post in the last 2 years..

Well, I would like to know what are the opportunities presently for Indian Citizen having 2500+hrs on A320 on right seat.

Especially in Middle East, South East Asia( Basically Outside India).


Cheers

Yes, I have 2500+ hours on A 320 with Indian ATPL.


Is Tiger still hiring?


I know for a fact srilankan is hiring. But they are hiring for 320 fleet only. Change to wide body will happen only after completing 2 years with them and in case they have requirement. Also command upgrade after 6 years.

I have applied with emirates, etihad, Qatar, air Arabia , rak, asiana. Except asiana haven't got reply from anyone. Any advices on the same?

^^

Try Vietnam Airlines and to certain extent Citilink/Garuda if you want to go lower the league.Prrune got active Indian VN pilot as member ,wait for his inputs.
Air Arabia/Qatar have tendency of giving late aknowledgement.
You might need to contact recruiting agency for contract pilot jobs as far as i know and most of them are ****ty with crap T&C's.

Ask Jetjocky for Indonesia or Captjns for Gulf positions as they are most active expats on this forum.

Thumbs up @iamanaussiemavrick

Good thinking my friend, when Indian FO will move out, then Jobless pilot's in India will get a chance!

try Rishworth Aviation (Bribe) or thru any agency, they might help you in getting a job on A320 or A330!

All the best happy landing!

etihad emirates and other such airlines have open house interview as they call them in various places.
they invite people meeting their qualifications to attend such events.
