There is only ONE American pilot that joined as a DEFO and passed the upgrade to freighter captain, but he went passenger FO for a while before trying (greater than 3 years with CX).
Is this really true? What's the reason? Are there any americans on here that can give some feedback? Does someone in the training dept have a chip on their shoulder against yanks? I know of a guy that's turned down the job, they called him back and he turned them down again for this very reason. I thought it was vicious rumour since CX seems to be an HR department dream of racial diversity, but now it's got me thinking.
