R22Captain Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 212 requirements are basically the same and same pay. Also looking for engineers, but I haven't seen an official posting on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturnman Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 212 requirements are basically the same and same pay. Also looking for engineers, but I haven't seen an official posting on that. Don't wait for job postings, if you are interested apply now. There are LOTS of pilots and AMEs in the queue so if you are interested, and qualified, apply!

There are LOTS of pilots and AMEs in the queue so if you are interested, and qualified, apply! SM What are their actual requirements for 212 engineers? I'd heard 5 years on type. That rules a lot of guys out. And do they accept a TC recognized 212 course, or is a Bell one the only thing that will do? Not looking to go, I'm in a moral commitment with my current employer, but I'm curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jacdor Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Big difference in pay in between the left and right seat, must be safer on the left I guess. JD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windslapper Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Before you go, read Allan's blog. The enemy isn't always who you'd expect. http://lifeasahuman.com/author/allancram/page/2/... Quite a good read. He is a good writer and I agree that anyone thinking about going there needs to do their research. This is not like going up north.

Swamp76 Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Quite a good read. He is a good writer and I agree that anyone thinking about going there needs to do their research. This is not like going up north. I agree. A good part of that has been written earlier in this thread Too many people, pilots/engineers/etc, show up in these locations first and then realize where they are. I remember the new-hires in west africa getting off the plane, looking around, and getting right back on. That isn't as easy in a war zone.
