Interview EAAC
 

Hi,

I have been invited to attend an interview and group excercise at European Aviation Air Charter for a FO position, and was hoping somebody could give me a heads up as to what to expect?

Also, does anybody have any information on roster pattern/salary etc.?

Many thanks in advance,

W.O.

Salary was pretty much average.
There was no pattern, can't imagine that's changed a great deal - expect absolutely anything.
But you will be flying one of the last real aeroplanes and they did have a splendid training department.
Of course there was the usual whingeing but for variety and fun flying it was the best job I ever had.
Good luck!
:)

If you get it - enjoy the variety, there were some excellent people to work with once at the jet. Don't expect anything like a stable roster but if you're young enough you can probably cope with the way the company "runs".

Get your jet hours from them, then go get a proper job with a future. Advice expensively and painfully learnt.

Zurg,

Could you go into a bit more detail about the roster instability. Just trying to get an idea if its irratic flying but planned in advance etcor if its lots of standby last minute jobs etc.

Any EAAC pilots out there that know the exact salary & flight pay.

Cheers

Anyone out there know what the interview and group tasks consist of?

check your pm's sun and washed

would also appreciate any info available, as have also been invited for interview.

Sorry to sound like a nag but is there anyone out there that can shed any light on the Interview and Group tasks etc.

What questions, tests etc etc.

Any advice gratefully received.

Many Regards,

Has anyone got any info on interviews and the group ex at EAAC. Have an interview next week and could do with any info.

:ugh:

Hi Peeps

Can I ask what experience level you :ugh: are. I’m just curious as I hand delivered my application, part time FI, 1000Hrs mainly SEP, living locally and meet all the specified requirements. Looks like it’s a no go for me. Best of luck anyway..

EAAC Company info
 

Hi
Got an interview with EAAC in 2 weeks and would just like to know a little more about life there right now ie. pay, rosters,etc! Anyone out there be of any help? ;)
I believe that they've lost the 747 fleet and are just down to 3 737's now.
Plus if anyone can give me a heads up on what to expect in the interview & group exercise I'd be most grateful!
Cheers! :ok:

Hi folks,
You may find nobody can help much with this. When I joined I had a last minute 1 to 1 interview followed by sim ride in the 727. There were no group exercises. Since the last staff 'cull' there has been a change of pilot management so I suspect this could be the reason for the change in approach. Both the fleet manager and training manager are excellent though and should look after you well. Good luck with it, it's certainly an interesting place to work!

Can someone provide details on routes and QOL? Is it still operating 737-200s on adhoc charter throughout Europe? Where are the pilot bases again? I knew a bloke who flew for them a few years back and he is now flying for Easy - he enjoyed his experience there.

Cheers

Routes are very varied except for the regular 'Palmair' flying out of Bournemouth, the ad-hoc work makes the job very interesting but also very unstable. As far as I know everyone is still based at Bournemouth so there is a lot of positioning to other airports and a lot of hotels. Roster stability was always a major gripe at EAC, it used to be non existent.

news?
 

anyone heard anything yet?

No I haven't heard anything yet. They said they would write to us before christmas.

Taking chances with the xmas post - nice!

Fingers crossed everyone.

i'M GUESSING WE WON'T HEAR ANYTHING IF ITS GOING TO BE BY POST. UNLESS THEY PHONE OR EMAIL US.

Merry X mas

See you in the sim with any luck

Going to the sim on the 9th, anyone else going?

Yep I'm going. Anyone know what it involves yet?

Is it basic handling etc? IFR? or scary stff like EFATO etc etc.
