I'm still waiting but I start to believe that I'm not going to receive that call....
Interesting to hear that EMB190 knows a pilot who received the call with 600 TT and 150 ME, far away from the minimum requirements.
I have 1600 TT with 1100 in Turboprop MAP and nothing!!!! :sad:

Would be interested to know where the chosen low houred guys did their training...

VFE.

Well I have three times your experience, all of it at LCY. No call either :ouch:

I suspect that jet time counts first and foremost, with personal recommendations not far behind.

Good luck to all invited and 'chin up' to those not.

SetStandard 2nd November 2010 19:34

I have 1500 jet hours and no call or email from them either.

Keep optimistic guys. :\

VFE 2nd November 2010 19:50

Will get even more interesting come April when the Harriers start to pop off and then when the Nimrod guys start to flood onto the market... just to cheers us up whilst we're on a jolly note. :}

VFE.

Hi Guy's,

Just to let you know that I missed the call from BAC yesterday as I was Flying and to BAC's credit they emailed me to tell me as my phone didn't allow voicemails for some reason.

I would have been non the wiser if I hadn't seen the email. So I think I got lucky. I do have the type though so maybe that why they went the extra mile on this occassion.

Don't get to disheartent as I know others with the type that haven't heard anything yet. I'm sure there is still stuff going on behind the scenes at BAC so there is still hope just be patient and hopefully you will hear something soon.

Good Luck to all
:ok:

Drake,

Quote:
A colleague who has also applied called them earlier. He said that he was told that those who are to be invited to interview will be called by the end of business today and then PFO emails would go out towards the end of the week.
How certain are you/your mate about this? Of the 60+odd (got better things to do than count them all up) applicants who have been active on this thread, for only 4 or so to get the call (or know someone who did) seems a little odd.

I would be very surprised if this is the point for "That's All Folks" from BACF. But then again, life in this profession does seem to be very full of surprises these days.

I'm certain I'm afraid. The two of us applied together and he volunteered to make the call this morning in the crew room. We're both looking to get back to the UK after working abroad for the past few years. Sadly it doesn't look like it's our time. Fingers crossed Flybe start recruiting soon.

Jabulani 2nd November 2010 22:13

Seems to look like they want to have no experience, I even would bring left hand seat experience at LCY. :sad:

Keep you informed if there will be a call...:rolleyes:

turbine100 2nd November 2010 22:29

I have just under 500hrs and fly on a AOC light A/C with not a lot of experience compared to others and am modular.

No call. Would be interesting to find out what the screening requirements set are and whether its lots of experience or low houred cadets from integrated schools.

CoiledString 2nd November 2010 22:48

CHECHE 3rd November 2010 10:53

I'm amazed :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

What are they looking for? :confused:

custard guts 3rd November 2010 11:07

Duf, I have flown with you so I am not suprised!

Dr Eckener 3rd November 2010 11:17

I suspect they are looking for cheap cadets and those who will work for the lower salary. Same as everyone else these days. Experience is a hindrance in this depressing market.

4000TT, plenty jet, TP command. No call.
