South Asia and Far East WannabesA forum for those applying to Cathay Pacific, Dragonair or any other Hong Kong-based airline or operator. Use this area for both Direct Entry Pilot and Cadet-scheme queries.
has anyone heard from the Dragonair pre-qualified cadets? got a email about 3 months ago saying they're going to start interviews mid-year but nothing since then.
any info on assessment during the stages will be greatly appreciated also
is it gonna be similar to teh short-course at CX?? There's seem to be not enough advertisement about the short course....at the moment everyone's just guessing.
Obviously nothing is impossible, but I don't think KA will need to look outside HKG for cadet pilots. The company currently don't need as many pilots as Cathay, nor do they have as many incoming aircraft or route expansions either. I also don't think the company itself has the resources to conduct interviews for expatriate applicants. Unless there is a major exodus of pilots from Dragonair, it is hard to see them resorting to recruiting expatriates for their CPP.
That being said though, a turn in the rumour mill is indicating cadet pilot intake will increase next year.
Hopefully it doesn't open up internationally too soon...no offense to those people who want it to. Looking to go for KA if i don't get though CX again my next try
