Timilu, I have similar experience but got a PFO e-mail.:confused:

BR.

how old are you ? I heard many "rumors" saying that once you are over 32 years old you start to be less interresting for easyjet, and once you are over 40, you are just ****** up :ooh:

Bad Robot

Sorry, but what is a PFO email?



Icing AOA,

Im 39, so I hope I m not completely f***** up yet:8 but I see what you say. But if my age was such a big problem, why would they send me an email telling me, that I ve progressed to the next stage?? And with flights being cancelled due lack of crew, should nt they just hurry up and get people like me onboard:O (sorry, know that sounded pretty big headed) Furthermore, with the rather large turnover rate, that Easy pilots on this forum report, that EasyJet is experiencing, why would they worry about a 39 year old??

Rgds Timilu

You are incorrect. I am 34 with about 7000 hrs...most medium jet with airlines, and I have an assesment day coming up.

I hope the age factor does not play against me...

Regards
:eek:

hola susoal, I am very happy for you indeed, and I wish you all the very best for your interview !
As I said before, I just heard that as a rumor, so I have no clue at all if it is true or not.
But I know some people with lots of JAR25 hours who have unfortunately never been called for an assesment day with easyjetand they are over 40 :confused:

I personaly reckon that this discrimination is quite stupid especially in such a dynamic company, in which you can expect to get the command quite rapidly anyway..

Anyhow, good luck to all of you :ok:

If Easy does not want pilots above 40,I guess you need to go to Ryan. :ok:

Well...No:p

I did hear that if you are over 40 and haven't got any medium jet time or command time, then the wisdom that is the training department considers it a training risk. Seems as though a lot of good experienced people are not getting the call. :ugh:

It seems that this lady is.... a cabin crew member ;)

TRSS with Easy Jet
 

Hi guys/gals

I would like to know how the TRSS scheme works with
regards to payment for the TR?
Do easy help you get a loan from the bank?
Do they just bond you for 5 years with that £5000 pa deducted from your salary?
Or is it none of the above? You are on your own basically?

I have searched this and found different conflicting ideas from
folk on this forum.

Hopefully somebody knows

Cheers:ok:

Great, 1500hrs commercial light jet, 3700 multi crew rotary and now no prospects of getting a decent job at 42. Pass me the aspirin.:(

Well, in my opinion, I would guess that a 40 years old F/O with a 24 and a half years old captain is not likely to give you an excellent CRM ... :}

Maybe that is a reason!

Cant see why age is a barrier to good CRM and what happens to someone after 40 compared to 39. I know that a line has to be drawn somewhere but if you can't get on with the guy next to you regardless of age then you're in the wrong business. You're always going to be flying with people of different ages, backgrounds, opinions etc, so why age. You may as well discriminate against someone because they come from the north.

Hey guys,

This question has been asked a few times before, also in other threads, but no real answers yet...so once more:

When would an experienced FO (>4000 737) get a shot at command in easy?

Would be interesting to know. I should get a chance to start training for command within 1 year in my current company...but easy seems to be a better place to be at the moment...

thanks in advance for your answer

Not at the moment, but I believe you will qualify for what they call fast track command. Unless you have 500 hours CURRENT command on a medium to heavy jet there is no chance.

Hope it helps:)

Rubbish. (sorry for being personal)
We had that configuration in my previous company a lot, and it worked quite well. To my experience, a newly hired 40 year old F/O knows much better to do his job right than a 30 year old, who's accrued some seniority and thinks he's in the wrong seat!

CRM is always a challenge, and the age is just one - rather minor - factor.

Btw., at CV we have also 31 year old Cpts flying with 60 year old F/Os. (The latter occur in every company that even occasionally fails upgraders).

Regards,
TRNRD

Guys
I have never heard so much rubbish in my life, age isn't a factor, i flew with a guy today aged 42 with medium tp time who joined via TRSS. I also did a sim for a guy the other day aged 43, a GECAT self sponsored type rating guy with not many hours.

And the rest of your posts seem to reflect a guess at best so if you do not work for the company please chill out and stop trying to intimidate and discourage guys/gals with your nonsense UNFOUNDED opinon.

All you know about easy is''I heard''.Just remmeber the amount of applicants that need processing, with applications ranging from Student pilots to retired Captains with only a couple of HR staff.

''how old are you ? I heard many "rumors" saying that once you are over 32 years old you start to be less interresting for easyjet, and once you are over 40, you are just ****** up''.

''Well, in my opinion, I would guess that a 40 years old F/O with a 24 and a half years old captain is not likely to give you an excellent CRM ... ''

Of course if you happen to be the skipper, its normal op's here everyday.

''It seems that this lady is.... a cabin crew member''


Sums it all up. IDIOT!

To Whom it may concern!!!

I am well over 40 and i have an assessment day.

Good luck to all regardless of age.
