It’s not a ruse it’s a fact. Pilots are a dime a dozen. We have many applicants from second tier operators applying to The Cathay Pacific Group. We offer superior conditions to what those pilots currently enjoy and they get to fly shiny jets. They don’t care about medical after retirement. When they do, it’s too late for them to start over somewhere else at the bottom of a seniority list.
Yes you are expendable and there will always be a supply of pilots. As for the lowly skilled part, well you may think you are highly skilled but we consider the pilots down right DUMB. The way we chip at your contract speaks for itself. Pilots are idiots.
Remember we bought KA, you will receive what we are willing to give you. There is much to ones contract than just salary. Lowering benefits will also increase my bonus.
