I heard first hand from different guys independent from each other that the claims are true ,it is a culture of fear and disrespect at least on the 200.
Also very important to consider:
the extreme high failure rate ( 6 out of 10 first shot) on upgrading courses on the 200. two failures and you end up as a PFO
( Professional First Officer
,)
so that leaves the following question:
If CX has these infamous tough requirements on new joiners,with very experienced guys among them,who is to blame for these failures well above industry level??
I always hear the money is so exeptionally good at CX. Actually this is definetely not true on the freighter fleet,the pay is average at the most ,you would earn more at every european major including freight airlines( wide body).Plus: you may never be able to get a cpt salary...
Strangely there are still guys around who defend this inhuman and silly system,very hard to understand as I see it..
