Re: What looks better to Cathay?

I know first hand that OO is a great place to work. However, upgrades are going to be slowing WAY down unless we get some more airplane orders. Right now we have about 10 CR7's to be delivered between now and the end of May. After that the horizon is empty. Also, from the looks of the new training schedule that management published, there are no new hires forecasted for the 1st quarter of this year and only about 40 upgrades; that includes both EM2 and CRJ. That being said, staff planning accuracy over here seems to be slightly less on target than an 8 ball if you know what I mean. Also, right now it seems we are having 8-10 pilots a month move on to bigger and better things so we will need newhires eventually. Hopefully I'll be joining that rank in due course. Good luck in deciding your next career move.
