Guest Dune Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 As I know there are a number of pilots still looking at a potential move to EK, I must point out there has been a major shift in policy with respect to seniority with the decision to hire DE Captains. No one at this time knows how this will affect overall command upgrades for those First Officers currently in EK or those considering joining. For those eligible for DE command, still no idea of terms and conditions. When available I'll post for those interested in applying. Cheers Details: 1 INITIAL RECRUITMENT CRITERIA The minimum entry requirements for First Officers has been revised as follows: - 4,000 total time - 2,000 hard jet hours - ATPL - Age under 48 2 COMMAND ELIGABILITY CRITERIA The company has reviewed the minimum criteria for normal command and this has been set as follows 2.1 Normal Command The company’s policy for upgrade to Captain is as follows: - 36 months in EK. - 6,000 total time. - 4,000 hard jet hours. - Satisfactory command assessment. - 12 months on type. 2.2 Accelerated Command The company’s policy for Accelerated Command has changed significantly and with immediate effect First Officers will only be considered for accelerated command provided that they meet the following criteria: - 2,000 command (>55 tonnes) immediately prior to joining EK. - 8,000 total time on joining EK. - 4,000 Hard Jet hours. - Satisfactory command assessment. - 18 months in EK. - Min 1,000 hours on type in EK. - 12 months on type. 3.
