Around 25 A320 commands this year , so I hear from the DB plaza. Zero A330. But this is whats planned , things change with the odd early retirement and inevitable resignations,
KA now prefer single , male candidates in their late 20’s, who can sow their seed in the local community.
The traditional preferred recruitment areas of Australia, NZ, UK have been expanded of late to include former Eastern European states and South Africa. We hear that India could be an area to include for future pilot demand .
Its not so bad here, the pilot retention rate speaks volumes. However, if you are a home boy.& you yearn for the girl next door, then you come for the rating and scarper after 500 hours. No bond to pay.
If you want to meet your Asian sweetheart and suck on fried tofu with mon & pap , you could have a long career ahead of you at CXDragon.
