Default Contracts for over 60's in Eurasia

Good day Gentlemen (and any ladies present!)


Just to let you know, Direct Personnel, an aviation recruiting agency in Ireland, has contracts available for over 60's on the B757/767 and A320. The contract is in Eurasia and there is already many contractors on base with this airline. Many of those from the US and one of the the main guys looking after the pilots on base is an ex Delta Captain.

Excellent terms and conditons available, tax free salaries, and yes, commuting schedules available! The airline has a great route network serving the main cities in Europe.

Direct will be going to the US in Sept/Oct to discuss these positions with interested pilots. We also have sim booked in Miam in October...

Meanwhile, feel free to log on to www.directpersonnel.com and find out more information!

Good luck guys!

Hi!

Emirates will hire guys over 60. My buddy interviewed there, and talked to a DAL -777 captain. He retired at 57 from DAL, and went as a DEC (Direct Entry Captain) to Emirates on the -777. He said Emirates was by far the best airline job he ever had.

Hi there, Yeah, Emirates is also a great contract, A very attractive package on offer with all kinds of perks for pilots families as well.

Etihad and Qatar are also offering good terms. Not sure of they're over 60 but if Emirates are offering it, those two big carriers are sure to follow. The nice thing about the Direct contract is the commuting contract...6 weeks on, 2 weeks off. And you're well looked after!
