As far as I am aware, ASL do no longer have any recruitment. All pilots are recruited by Cathay. You join the Cathay seniority list, and either fly for Air Hong Kong(which is 100% owned by Cathay) or Cathay Cargo.
All ASL pilots were given the option in late '99 to either stay with ASL or join the Cathay seniority list. Most joined Cathay.
