CHC Int. Fixed wing

[Northern Rockies]

Just curios as to the hiring requirements for the overseas operations, all the usual questions salary, schedule, and qualifications ie. do they require a Canadian ATP or a JAA ATP?

PM if you don't feel like posting.

Thanks NR

[just curious]

The canucks I know there went with their Cdn licence and a few thousand hours on type.

Thanks JC, do you know if they were happy with their move and the operation?

[just curious]

I know of three. One was quite happy, but went to AC. One is quite happy, being the consummate ex-pat, and the other hasn't been there quite two weeks yet

Thanks NR

When i was working in Libya last year i met a couple of Dash-8 pilots working for CHC. I believe they were all out of Vancouver. They were only flying 2-3 flights per week, but they all seemed content.

From a maintenance view point, they had their shit together. In a country where parts and equipment are hard to come by, they were very well stocked. There GSE was all brand new Tron Air stuff, They had skilled and happy staff, the rented the best hanger they could find....etc. This is a company that does things right!

There pilots were provided with nice houseing, crew transport and a good rotation back to the "real world"

If you get a chance to work for them, i'd jump on it!!!
