Any Idea what airline this is?
 

Job Description

We are currently recruiting for one of our clients who are a large Airline in Europe that operate the B737 EFIS. Applications are welcome from both Captains and First Officers rated on this type. This opportunity comes with accommodation fully provided and an attractive roster! If you are interested in this opportunity - please apply through this website and we will be in touch accordingly. Should you know of anyone who may also be interested in this position, please ask them to register on this website.
Requirements:-
Must hold a valid and current rating on the B737 EFIS
Must hold a valid JAA ATPL
Minimum of 2500 hours B 737-300 flying time ideally with 500 PIC on Type for Captains
Minimum of 1000 hours B 737-300 flying time for First Officers
Ideally have full 6 Months remaining on LPC from April 1st
This position is an Agency Contract

I think that is TUIfly? They were advertising summer contracts elsewhere.

What does EFIS means? CL only or CL/NG?

The newer 737 classics had EFIS flight instruments whereas the earlier ones has good old fashioned analogue instrumentation. I assume the airline operates newer generation 737 classics. Don't think it's TUI as I believe they operate 700 and 800s?

This must be jet2.com in my opinion.
I can't think of many other airlines in Europe still operating a large fleet of B737EFIS.

LOT?
AirBaltic?
Czech Airlines?

Carpatair, Small Planet or Primair (former Prima Aerotrasporti, maybe going to change the name in Wiki Airlines).

Sounds like Ryanair to me :-D

Yes smith, must be. Ryanair and their 737-300's

place your bets............

JAA ATPL required, you reckon that goes for F/O:s as well?

Lufthansa, KLM? Just a thought...

Could well be carpatair,definitly not jet2 because its a 3 on 1 off flight home paid for JET2 always require relocation not TUI because they have NG's aswell,recruiter said they are ideally looking for guys with 737CL experience however if there is demand they will accept NG guys but only 5 positions at the moment,technically the NG is efis aswell.

5 positions = normally crew for 1 aircraft, & I believe Carpatair are getting just the one initially. The job was advertised twice on latestpilotjobs.com. I applied twice, but not a cheep.
Base will be I believe Chisinau Moldova, (even though they say Timisoara "or any base in Romania") as , if you google it , you will find Carpatair are starting flights to Italy etc direct from there with B737 on 26/03.
They don't as yet have any 737, so the job may well be offered through Blue Air, for whom they operated some Saab 2000's in the past.
I have met guys who flew the Fokker 100 for these folk, & roster was (vaguely) 3 on 1 off. . . so could be.

Any Idea what airline this is? #2
 

We have been presented with an opportunity to place between 4-8 pilots with an airline for 500 hours or one year whichever comes first.
To qualify for this you must complete the type rating with us and be ready to join the airline in early May. The type rating training will start last week in March at Heathrow.
Cost of assessment is £540 inc VAT.
Type rating £15,000 + VAT
Base Training £6000 no VAT
Line Flying £27,500 no VAT.
You must hold a JAA licence and current ME/IR. We can complete your MCC if required at an extra cost of £2000 + VAT
You will be paid flight pay when you fly. The airline location is Europe and a knowledge of German would be an advantage.

Not sure that this definition of opportunity makes it to any dictionary. Pay £49k to work for a year:eek: Surely nobody is that (lost for words...)

:ugh::{:{:ugh::ugh::{:{:ugh::ugh::{:{:ugh:

Bad enough to pay for type-rating & base training, but £27500 to pay to operate the plane, NO WAY:=!! That's what we GET PAID FOR.

I hope nobody applies to this, disgrace:mad:.

I am pretty sure that is fly Nikki they have a P2F scheme,what a joke 49K to work for someone for a year :ugh::ugh:

Answer to your original Q, Carpatair (confirmed)

2 years on from:

pap2f

Trigger what makes you say that....? are you aware of the current t&c's or the pay etc???? roster..... etc

:E500 UKP a month plus a Hershey bar

Spoke to the agency today - FO 1000hrs HAS TO BE on B737CL EFIS. They will not accept NG hours........do they not understand it is the same aeroplane. Small minded or what? (I have 900 CL and 1200NG so not in the running)

Based on what they were paying Capts, I am surprised they can be so choosy for FO's, guess that says how many of you guys are on the market.

What was on offer for captains?

Sorry, missed your Q. For Capt. . . . .

293€/day , min 12 days paid in Apr/May whether you work them or not, till end of contract thereafter, they were forecasting 22 on 7 off & two days to travel, they tried to suggest you would earn 293x22 till I pointed out that "normally" you couldn't work 22 days consecutively :hmm: so, I guess 18x293. There was some other little add-ons like holiday pay, so a (small) golden handshake & there was 350€ allowance for travel home each mth. Hotac provided, base they don't say, but googling Carpatairs plans it appears to be Chisinau, starting services there on 26/03.
Not the worst, but not far off.

My Romanian girlfriend tells me Moldova is entirely populated by Whores & Alcoholics. . . so there are at least some compensations :D

Thanks CaptPS. You are correct - it is not as bad as some (Small Planet springs to mind!) alas there has been no response to me ...

Yep, SPA is not a substitute for a lottery win :hmm:

The lack of response is puzzling, I applied twice ( by different methods) when they advertised directly ( with 13000hr+ on type) & heard nothing. When AeroPro advertised I eventually managed to find out who it was, & that courtesy of my previous application I couldn't apply through them (wasn't too heartbroken) so, I have this niggling doubt whether it will actually happen, or will it be the usual Fri a-noon call to start on Mon morning ?

I have still heard nothing from SPA FO 737,however I did manage to get in touch with the recruiter and she said to call back end of march for FO's as they are "currently focusing on captains only" ............?:ugh:

With the greatest of respect that is :mad:. They had a course of new FO's start on Monday, & appear to be having difficulty recruiting Capt's (the €4000 salary possibly doesn't help) The problem is that they prefer to take a rated but zero-hour on type guy on one of their 5 yr (maybe) P2F contracts. You can read about it on another thread on training forum.

A new course started monday.....? Well I was told blatent lies then,I was told no FO recruitment for another 3 weeks to ring her back then gave her full name etc etc,thats really annoying,whats the point in lying,and if CPT is 4k I cant imagine what FO is is 4k the basic and perdiem sector on top of that

So why are you still applying for this position?????:ugh::ugh::ugh:

Because there is nothing else out there,and the majority of other contracts are 1500TT im about 300 short so to be honest I dont mind putting up with **** pay for about 6 months in order to,get something different only choice I have

Guys,

The course which started on Monday was for 2 type rated guys starting the 5 year contract with Aviationcv and they will be doing 500 hrs with SPA and there is 7 more guys due to start once they've completed their type rating with baa.


I hope this helps.

Yor 'aving a larf!

PM

€4000 + hotel provided is it . . . . :rolleyes:

For FO's & the joys of the 5 year contract , it is all on the thread in the other forum, possibly titled Aviation C.V /Baltic Aviation Academy, but you will find it if you search under Small Planet Airlines.

So are they basically not taking on any rated experienced guys directly is everything this 5 year stuff through BAA or aviation CV.

AFAIK (or have seen) looks like Yes. Know quite a few experienced guys who applied (like you say found nothing else) none have made any progress beyond telephone promises.

To wannabes...know this one and all... tuition comes at a very high price.

This reminds me of a scene from the movie Porky’s… Great movie by the wayhttp://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...ies/thumbs.gif.

A groups of high schoolers fro Angel Beach go a house of ill repute to experience their first assignation. Well they pay Porky a large sum of money…. Shown to a special door, to which they open with great anticipation, only to find themselves in a swamp.


Porky is up on the balcony with other patrons of his establishment laughing at the lads in the water who not only had their egos diminished, but less the sum of money they came with without the reward of receiving the anticipated services to be rendered.


To those expecting sympathy:= for getting hosed by the likes of these types of bottom feeders who prey on the innocent???http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...lies/yeees.gif rent the movie Porky's. After watching the movie recommend it to any of your mates thinking about scams such as these.


Consider it as a nondeductible tax learning expensive.http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...ies/boohoo.gif
