Some of you should read the previous 23 Pages where you will find all the infos you need

To work in Vietnam you need to go with an agency
Parc Aviation is the first choice
then Europacific and Ristworth

The salary include EVERYTHING no tax to pay in Vietnam (but your country????)

Everything means if you receive 12000 US/month
you pay for your accomodation * maybe 1000 us /month
you pay your food and beers and all your expense (except Hotel and transport OFF base )for your 6 weeks anywhere you are
your travel is free on your rotation on Vietnam Airlines ONLY
If you live in America(exemple) you will have to BUY a ticket from Paris, Frankfurt or Tokyo to your destination
No pension plan
No school allowance for kids
No dispatch
No loss of license insurance
For those pilots who are working with a real Airlines (SIA,Emirates,ect,ect) stay where you are (I know some of you are not happy at those Airlines but this is 100 times better)
IF you D ONT HAVE A JOB now YES it is a good place to work specialy if you are single
The FO are generally OK
Roaster a lot of change on ATR and A320 B777 not so bad

well just to add my opinion on 3 things

f/o's............DO suck................no SOP, no discipline, half of the check list's , they think they're driving a scooter, its like if some one told them to do nothing but take all the catering after a days work from the galleys!!!! if you can get along with that you'll be just fine , ohhhh they also smoke like prostitutes in the cockpit no permission asked to the captain

roster on the 320 its the worst !!!! not ATR, thats a paid holiday for those guys

and it doesnt matter if youre married
it will not be too difficult to find some cute viet girl :ok:

c ya

FO... do suck???????????:=:=Hey Skipper take it easy:) may be they smoke like whores but you complain like one of them:}

I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I feel that FO's on the A320 fleet operate on a very high standard, many have already progressed to the L/H seat are doing well.

Cheers D.L.

just wondering about the sim interview.....
 

Would appreciate any info on the sim interview. I will be heading out to SIN in a couple of weeks....

Also any recommendations on good, inexpensive areas to live in Saigon?

Private messages are cool.

Thanks!

Hello!

I am also attending a sim session within two weeks! Anyone with some advise?

Thanks very much in advance!

grtz:ok:

hello folks

just to know...how long does it take to be called for the sim after having applied with parc?

thks a lot in advance:ok:

PM me for details.

Cheers

Can be anywhere from Minutes, to months. Generally, within a few weeks.

Generally speaking, I have to agree. Like any other airline, there are always exceptions, but as a general rule these guys are pretty good operators.

One recent candidate that I'm aware of had the same issue. His solution was to attend one of the type-rating schools in the US ("Primair" I recall was the name of the school) and pay for his own check-ride renewal. Also, he had the "Circling" restriction removed during that check-ride.

Incidently, he was successfull in his SIM evaluation and will be joining VNA in the coming weeks.

No, Parc Aviation and Rishworth share the recuiting efforts. But, if you have already had Rishworth (or Parc) begin any recruitment process on your behalf, you will not be able to change agencies. There is an accepted rule that once one agency has you, you cant' change to another UNTIL the end of the first contract. Even then, changing agencies is subject to all sorts of different criteria and approvals.

Screening soon
 

Hi guys,

Anybody who has been to the screening recently would be so kind to share their experience?
I've been invited to singapore and would like to know as much as possible before getting there.
Thanks in advance and safe flying.

If you use Airbus FCOM already, you should be fine.
Have you received your syllabus? We followed the syllabus that was sent to us.

Even though my sim partner and I came from different airlines with different procedures, we were able to get through the sim evaluation and offered positions.

You will get multiple failures, circling and vor approaches, landing with at least a 20 knot cross wind and no auto thrust or auto pilot.

Thanks for that info. No I haven't recieved any syllabus yet, probably because I don't have a fixed date for the sims.
Is there anything else on the screening apart from the sims? any technical questionare or one to one interview?
Thanks again and safe flying.

Gday guys,

Ive also applied for an A320 f/o job through PARC. Has anybody recieved any dates for screening in Nov as my application has been in the system for over a month? Is it normal to deal with one person one week and a different person the next during this process. From experience who do you guys believe is better PARC or Rishworth? Lastly how many weeks notice do they give you before the actual screeing date? Your help is greatly appreciated!

Rgrds
UFC!!;)

Hey UFC... for what it's worth I've had the exact some results that you have. I've applied with Parc and been told that my app has been approved and to expect an evaluation in November as soon as they finalize their sim dates. (Also dealt with several different people which kind of confused me as well).

I guess we just have to be patient...

:hmm:

I'm not going to chance any action from either of the companies by posting my opinion about this.

However, there are several cases of Rishworth Pilots changing over to Parc for various reasons. There is NOT ONE instance of a Parc Pilot changing over to Rishworth!

I think that this fact speaks for itself, thus answers your question. :O

a330 info required
 

:OHi guys.

Lots of info on a320 topics, but does anyone know of the latest situation re
A330 recruitment, in particular Capts. I seem to get mixed messages about the A330 fleet for DEC's. Parc and Rishworth are advertising but some posts infer not a lot is happening. Any latest info would be very helpful.

Many thanks

Thanks Jimmy for you reply. I guessed that my be the case!
:ok:
