How can I apply as a Pilot?
The only thing you need to do
is send an eMail to pilot-application@stevens-va.de
if you'd like
to fly for
Stevens and provide the following information:
- Your full name
- City and Country of Residence
- Age
- Total flight hours on the PMDG 744, PMDG MD-11, Level-D 767 or PS1
(B742 hours on the Ready-for-Pushback will also be accepted)
- Type of Aircraft (multiple allowed) you'd like to apply for
- Some information about you and why you'd like to fly for Stevens VA.
In
return, you'll receive your Stevens-ID, the password and yor first duty
notification! Please note that it may
take up to 48 hrs to process your application. If you haven't heared from us
thereafter, please re-send your
application as sometimes eMails might get lost in cyberspace or caught by spam
filters.
Every assigned Pilot will get a
monthly Duty notification. That means a crew schedule where he
finds the
flights
he has to operate for Stevens.
But of course voluntarily!
Nobody has to quit his job to get the flights done! Just to give you a
feeling
about
the "Airline Life". You have "Standbys",
"Layovers" or "Shuttles" between destinations.
For a virtual pilot
a
different
experience, but of course fun!
The Charter Operation will be a
fun part, too. Once in a while, the assigned Stevens pilots will
receive an eMail
from the Flight Operation Center, in most cases when they don't like to have
a
duty notification or when they
have "STBY" in their duty notification. You'll receive a Charterflight Order
with all details needed for operating
this flight. DEP/DEST
airport, passenger
figures, cargo (note that D-ASCA to D-ASCD are freighters and D-ASSA
and D-ASSB are Combis!), limitations in payload and performance figures, that
make this flight
interesting to
operate. The destinations are sometimes tough,
short fields, you are limited in
Take Off weight and can reach
your destination
only when you leave cargo at the departure
airport, or you try a Reclearance
Flightplan and
save fuel enroute, or you plan a fuel stop. So
you have to make
decisions! You are the Captain!
If you don't like to fly the
charter you got, you send a return Email and refuse the flight and
another Pilot
will
be picked. If you like to do the
flight, just confirm the Flight via Email and good luck!
At any time in your virtual Career, you'll find help from the whole Stevens Team
in the dedicated Stevens Forum.
