Situation in Brazil

[swisspilot]

what are Azul's requirements?

Brazilian Citizenship, Brazilian CPL with ME/IR, CCF CPL, English level 4, Jet Transition Course (as for now it has to be done in Brazil, I only know one company that does it for Azul: FLEX....it`s 6000 Reias).......and a reference

To be considered you need at least 500TT but you can apply with less

Azul has ordered some more EMBs and they are getting also ATRs now.

The law in Brazil (and in 90% of South America) does not allow companies to hire foreigns.

There are few exceptions but they are mostly Part 91.

Sometimes they allow foreign to fly for the time a company need to find local crew (max 6 months usually)

But again laws in Brazil don`t have the same value then in the US.
