I was with CAL for about 18 months as an F/O ...Expat F/O's are treated like crap well actually so are the Expat Capts but at least as a Capt you can run your ship your way... very difficult working enviroment culturally speaking, it's very easy to tell the locals (most anyway but not all) really don't want you there and although most know the book very well they can't fly worth crap, go only if you really need a job,.. if your working elsewhere don't go,... the pay isn't anywhere near high enough to put up with the crap they dish out before you ask I was getting 5200/month plus 75/hour over 70 hours plus 1000/month houseing and $2/hour away from base ...ITS NOT WORTH IT
