CX CPP process and career
hi guys
FWIW, can you someone pls piece together what the standard route for a CPP is for everyone's benefit? I've put together below what I understand it to be:
1. CPP process
- 1st interview (HK - self funded)
- 2nd interview?? (HK - self funded)
- 3rd interview (HK - paid for by CX)
- success (after full medical, interview)
2. You're in!!
- head to HK to start for x number of weeks
- shipped to Adelaide for approx 12 months (all exps paid)
3. SO
- approx 3 years as SO flying on long haul flights
- ground school, etc to get rated on whatever you are selected to fly
4. FO
- approx 6-8 years as FO
6. CAPT
- Promotion to CAPT after passing selection board?
Okay, thats all I have..can you guys pls piece together the parts I've missed, especially what happens between completing the CPP program and SO ie. I'm sure you don't get to do your rating on the B777 (for eg) with only approx 300 hrs - do you do 'industry placement' like Qantas does?
Thanks
