The Russian airline Aeroflot began receiving foreign pilots.
At the moment, more than 800 people want to work for a Russian air carrier - they are pilots from Austria, Germany, the Czech Republic and other countries, but it is necessary to clarify that Aeroflot will produce a strict selection, allocating only experienced and qualified pilots.
A particularly large influx of candidates is expected from the Czech Republic, since a local air carrier dismissed some 150 pilots from its ranks a few days ago due to economic difficulties. It is assumed that, following this, the Russian airline, other Russian airlines will also take advantage of the right to hire foreign pilots.
