Default Employment..where to start?

Soon to be furloughed United guy. Second furlough and this will be my goodbye to old UAL-so I am looking outside the USA for a career not a stepping stone or wait for recall-I'm done with UAL.

B767/757, A320/319, B737-300/B727, MD80/DC-9, BA-4100/BA-3100 Types with PIC JET and TURBINE 10,000+ 3000PIC 121. Intl heavy jet, Glass, yadda yadda. 37 single-no kids and able to relocate.

Trying to fiqure out the best Pilot Recruitment company, which ones to stay away from-where to look (I know google yes..) any hints or suggestions.

Was offerd a job at Dana Air on the MD-80 for DEC. not sure if Africa is where I want to go JUST YET.

Comments, suggestions....?

Thanks!

Qatar is looking for B777 Cap/FO. You might want to give them a ring. Sorry to hear that.

Korean is hiring for the B777 of you are a current and qualified B767 skipper. Rishworth has a contract, but they'd be the last people that I'd call. Try CCL (Cambridge Communications Ltd.) email them at [email protected] for your request. The nice thing about KAL is that you domicile where you like as long as it is on their system. 13 day's off a month, two of which are for travel in a business class seat. I've heard of guy's starting TOD's out of their domicile as well, so could be good. Mixed reviews about working for them, but some really like it.

I second that on Korean--www.kal-ccl.com

www.ppjn.com has some hit-or-miss gouge on terms & conditions at various outfits if you want to kick around on there

From a friend who is in the hiring pool at Emirates since last year, I've heard they might resume classes in 2009, and I'd assume you would be very competitive as DEFO/DEC???

Yeah you would think I would be on the upper end right?

Most responces I get is "you need 500 PIC in type"

Or

"You last landing was more then 90 days ago...we need someone more current"


I just applied to KAL via GAP Aviation, but I am not really keen on spending money for a A330 type.

Qatar is becoming my first choice!

Keep the advice coming!
