Al Maha Airways: Captain A320   

About Your Job:

• Al Maha Airways is a new hi-bred service airline, based in Jeddah, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). It is a subsidiary of Qatar Airways and will reflect the best operational and technical aspects of that airline.

• It will be a productive operation but the rewards will be reflecting that productivity.

This is currently being modified.  It is now a hi-bred in many areas as they move towards compliance with the ICAO Annexes, but reflecting their FAA origins, which is very different to the EASA system.  Although the operation of aircraft is fundamentally the same, the GACAR’s regulatory system differs significantly from EASA.
