i was just thinking about joining KAL because of the bases.Having the chance to choose your base and going to live in the U.S.A should be great to me,you could work far away from mad KAL Captains.I suppose that places like sfo,lax and jfk are full of expat CPT and crews...life should be easy isn't it?Where do you perform your line training and type rating?
1) Are you a U.S. citizen or Green Card holder. If not, how can you "live" in the USA?
2) The A330 does not serve any of those bases. All of your flying starts and ends in Seoul. You would fly with some expat Captains, but you would also fly with Korean Captains.
Trust Captain Bee, he is only trying to give a friendly warning. I too, have often told people never to go to Asia as a First Officer if you will be flying with the locals. Places like Cathay and Dragonair are fine because they have a western culture, but most of the others would be quite difficult at times.
