Hi guys, sorry but got lost in translation, care to explain the last post? thanks

I reckon the kid of Lagmay has a chance. He is young & nobody starts this airline job knowing his trade well. But he better work hard for it.

But the case of the father is no excuse. Simply put, this is a typical story of what is left of PAL's pilots.

The pilots who "have it" have simply left & those left behind are those simply "without it".

Of course there are still PAL pilots left behind who have the skill to be Captains (but with a dash of stupidity) but they have been qualified already. The airline will simply run out of people to upgrade.

A typical PAL story is of a guy named aka Jacky Chan who is the son of a business partner of LT himself.

JC has been terminated from the co. for incompetence (man this guy thought that the B747 he was to flying {he was an s/o} had brake pads missing in the nose gear so he recommended to the Playboy Capt that the flight be grounded!!!).

Another case was when the Captain asked for the landing checklist when he suddenly smelled the sweet aroma of airline breakfast: JC was eating breakfast on short final!!!!

Nevertheless, JC is back with PAL as an s/o & all his tainted training records were deleted from the files of the airline as if he were a new entry trainee.

A group of senior F/o's have recently failed their Captain's training in the A330.

Koyang has thought of a new way of recruiting competent pilots.

Zosa of Emirates has a son who applied to be a pilot trainee in the PAL Av-school. The kid passed all requirements but Koyang decided that PAL will only accept Zosa's son if he goes back to PAL as a 320 Capt .

PAL is a one of a kind airline. I bet you this doesn't happen to other airlines elsewhere in the world.
