P2F for captaincy
 

If you got 24K.. you to can be a Captain in India.:mad:.... hahaha..
NOW ANYONE CAN BE CALLED CAPTAIN...hehehe

"This program gives B737NG FO´s the opportunity to upgrade to a Captain position in one of the most advanced and popular jet liners available in the aviation industry worldwide. This program is based in Southern Asia, and it takes 1 year.

Salary will be 3,000.00 USD (as a trainee FO for Captain conversion)
450.00 USD housing allowance
2 economy class free tickets in a year
8 weeks on 3 weeks off
Base will be at Southern Asia"

Airline will help converted Captain to get 500 hours on type as captain


12,000.00 USD at the signature time.
12,000.00 USD once you arrive to the airline.

Wonder which Airline it is.

Let´s look at the numbers.

-24.000$ entry fee, then...

12x 3000$ salary + 450$ housing allowance.

So the company are getting a captain for 1450$ monthly salary. Before tax.

There is a lesson in there. May it be listened to and well understood by everyone who might consider signing up with a flight school and pay for his license...

Here we go again. Let the games begin.

Guess it is the Lion Air upgrade program... 3000$ + 450$ during training until released to the line, then it raises to 6000$ + 800$ and there is a travel allowance also. It's a 5 years contract and at years 4 and 5 you are doing 9000$, paid in USD. Remember this a commuting contract, 8 weeks on 2 weeks off. If I'm not wrong those $24k will be repaid at the end of the contract.

Minimuns are 3000TT with 1000h as FO on 737NG or EFIS... and the $24k for sure ;)

What's next? Pay to be instructor?

Now there is Capts of the magenta line. Holes are aligning . Be very careful the next time you travel as a pax.

NOpe it not Lion ..hahaha... its in INdia..

This scheme has scam written all over it :hmm:

The pay on offer is what an entry level Indian FO makes with an airline in India.

There is a huge shortage of Captains in India so any Indian FO with an ATPL and minimums to upgrade to Captain will easily find jobs with any growing airline in India. So obviously does not make sense for an Indian FO to take such an offer

Then the question needs to be asked who is this scheme for ?

Is it for a foreign FO ?
That wont be possible because Indian DGCA does not allow foreigners or expats to fly for an Indian airline as a First Officer.
Foreign Captains need minimum 500 hours on type as PIC in order to be given the permission by DGCA to fly as a Captain in India

Anybody else still wants to believe that this offer is genuine ?

@cyril, Thanks for clearing that up! Complete scam , if anyone can name the fraudster please do it here!
