• Night and instrument experience (200+ night / 100+ instrument)
• Recent flight experience on type (within last 2 years)
• ICAO Level 5 English proficiency
• Ability to pass UAE military flight medical and security clearance
Highly desirable:

This role involves:
• Acting as Pilot-in-Command and Instructor on VIP operations
• Conducting mission planning, execution, and post-flight analysis
• Operating across varied terrains and environments
