Hotels i believe

MD80, I think they are somehow happy to move in a "just in time" approach to staffing and at the thinnest margins. 9 airplanes and 36 crews all pushing 100 hours is the story here with a 10th plane on its way.

Starskate, if there is a place that will go with it, this is it and the time is now.

I went to Vietjets office 3 months ago and was told they don't upgrade expat F.O, only local Vietnamese.

Upgrade
 

They don't upgrade expat F/O's because they don't have an upgrade program approved by the CAAV (I was told).

Guys, I expect it can be accurately stated that they will accept what the CAAV will accept. Correct, there is no upgrade program in place. I was guessing that starskate has an FAA type rating (applicable to both seats, my old US airline typed both pilots going through airbus training) which would mean some hours in line operations and a line check are all that are required. As far as what's legal, that's it, and I do believe that is where the bar is here and now. That and represent yourself as your ordinary knowledgeable airbus pilot in a SKYPE interview ...and manage a crazy sim ride.

I am going for sim in about a week in Bangkok.

I am expecting the Skype interview as well.

Can anyone please tell me what the sim is like? And what questions will they ask in Skype interview..

I am F/O A320

Thanks:)

Can any one share the link to their HR department. I do not seem to find any thing on their careers page. Looking for DEC position. Also what are the latest T&Cs offered? Will Appreciate all replies.

wow..with that kind of airline.. Low-cost in general..pilots are becoming real bus driver.
90h a month with quick turn-around same routes..3-4 sectors a day..bravo airbus.:D

Starskate,

No chance of upgrade with your present employer?

And do they pay the income tax, or is it the pilot...:eek:

how many aircrafts vietjet going 2 add in 2014? i m low time 350 hrs faa cpl holder ,ready to get type rated, will i hav any chance as a f/o if i personallly visit there office, any suggetion greatly appreciated!!! thanx in advance!

They must be getting desperate for Captain's I got an email asking me to
turn up for sim check in BKK. I hadn't applied.
I have heard stories they change the contract after 1 month so your money goes down.

Anyone know what their sim eval is like? Do they hire fo with zero time in type? Thx

Upgrades to captain
 

Do these guys upgrade foreign FOs to Captain? With their massive fleet order you would hope they might be considering internal upgrades of expats in the future.

Anyone in the know?

You could Offer to upgrade and remain on FO Pay. I know of 1 FO that has.

Upgrades
 

Yes, me friends in the company says they are planning to upgrade expat FO's but guess what - things are taking longer time than expected…

Panic and mayhem at crew scheduling, they fly captain/captain due to lack of FO's and also canceling flights due crew shortage.

Hi folks,

what is the average income for a 320 FO?

Thanks in advance.

It depends what contract your on. I think one of them is around 8,000 if you fly 100 hours but then you'll have to figure in that they will mess up your pay and short you. My pay has been shorted the last four months and all I hear is submit it again next month.

Will they hire non type rated guys with jet experience? If so could I have an e -mail or phone number
