Rishworth Aviation is proud to partner with Vietnam Airlines to offer a range of sought after contracts.
Being on assignment with Rishworth at Vietnam Airlines provides a rewarding experience with a stable
long term assignment, a choice of roster patterns to suit you with great career development
opportunities including upgrades and fleet transitions (offered by the airline). The low cost of
living in Vietnam, allows you to really make the most of the fees earned (in USD). The cost of living in
Vietnam is significantly less than most major European and American cities, in some cases by as much
as 50%. The cultural, lifestyle and travel opportunities are plentiful! Vietnam itself holds a myriad
of wonderful locations to explore and, with South East Asia on your doorstep, the options are endless!

All the staff are friendly, even the CEO, Im treated like part
of the family. Flying is based on straight Airbus SOPs and
flight training manuals are in English, so there is no risk of
mistranslations. Schedules offer 10h duty days or less, the
first officers are good to fly with, cabin crews are welltrained, and the mechanics have fantastic standards. Its a
wonderful place to work. There are many smart young
cadets who are willing to learn and keen to fly. I have to be
patient and have an open heart to teach them to be safe
pilots and help them build confidence. This offers a great
sense of achievement as an instructor. I feel lucky to have
a job as an expatriate pilot, as long as you fly well there are
no pressures, it is nice and relaxed, and a great way to meet
pilots from all over the world, share experiences and make
friends.
