Correct, this is common practice in many places around the world! When I applied here in Japan, I took my logbook to a public notary and had it stamped....! Don't know if THY will accept this, just a suggestion.

Excellent suggestion! Satisfies the stamping requirement. Now on to deal with the next asinine requirement...

I wonder why I didn't get this. Was this in an email? Here is all I found regaurding docs ....nothing in here about this "stamping"

Directly from the "Turkish Airlines Assesment Briefing.pdf"

You will need to bring all of your original documentation with you on the day of your assessment

currently have the following documents you should immediately request them as if you are successful

of the documents as well.
The documents below are essential and must be available on Day 1 of the assessment:

job, they must be provided (failure to provide these may result in a job offer being retracted):

Did they raise their pay or start paying in something besides the Lira? I have read several times "good pay" on this thread but when I check the pay and convert it from Lira it doesn't sound so good.

I don't have any experience dealing with these contract companies, but the discrepancy could be the difference between going through Sigma vs FCI... Doesn't seem to make much sense because applying to the same airline but that's the only reasoning I can think of....

Starlifter

That could be.

Just got an email this morning from FCI that the Turkish DGCA is no longer accepting FAA ATP's for the Non Type Rated pilots.

We were unfortunately informed this morning by THY that the Turkish DGCA will no longer accept FAA and ICAO license holders for the NTR positions.

If you hold a JAA/EASA ATP, please let us know as we then can continue with your screenings - though we did not see this on your application.

Should this change, we’ll be sure to inform you immediately. Please let me know if you have any questions.

With kind regards,

Thank heavens I didn't spend my off days going to that roadshow and harrassing my CP to write a rec letter for me, or to certify/stamp all my logbook pages.

Are their pilots in negotiations or something? I had heard some rumors this FAA thing might've been an attempt by the company for leverage, but idk.

Starlifter

Not at all surprised...
