Hi Bedder,
Actually I applied for this position in the Top Gun movie but unfortunately I failed the selection. After trying a lot of other things the only job that worked out was to be a pilot ...
Thanks for your reply ... it makes some of the things going on here more clear. Just to make sure we do not have a misunderstanding: I find it a relief to get back into HKG airspace after a flight in mainland China. Especially when the weather is bad and a lot of stuff is going on! I can remember just recently the weather in the HKG area causing everybody to divert and I must say almost everything is possible. So no complaints at all!
I am surprised (and a little bit shocked) by hearing your story. I did not realize that our "friends" from the North are completely in controll of whatever is going on in HKG airspace (including the terms and conditions at HKG ATC). Maybe I should have know better.
Cheers and keep up the good work!
