"As for as I know only the cadet applicants will receive a English test in terms of both listening and writing form." KOYO

"They don't really care what passport / citizenship you currently hold. As long as you apply to the cadet program they will treat you as a Hong Kong local period. Therefore they are not going to make exceptions and shouldn't make those exceptions." KOYO

"Now my question is does every cadet need to take that English course once they the cadet training." KOYO

Dear Koyo, you are really confused, the parties at school are taking their toll.

"A passport from an English country doesn't automatically mean you understand English." KOYO

"PS: I don't think you will ever run into a pilot from an English speaking country that don't speak fluent English. May sound different but this is an industry with a standardized language." KOYO


Koyo, you missed the point. I have been talking about pilots all along (not the general public) and mostly American ones.
