I personally know of two cathay pacific junior f/o's and some other s/o's who are leaving the fragrant harbour very soon for
VB. Their descisions were holy and soley based on lifestyle and moving back home! ....... Well they had to be, because they have taked a large pay cut to move back home, however my hat is off to them and any others who feel this is the right move as money isn't everything. I have considered it for some time now as there are a few ex CX men flying now in the left seat with
VB and they seem to be enjoying the job......
Maybe this proves one thing...... after the smoke clears, and you get fired from what seems to be the best job you will ever get in your career, you land on your feet again with a great company flying back in OZ which most GA pilots would consider THE BEST JOB OF THEIR CARREER!
If an oz basing on the A330 wasn't available in the next year i would be certainly considering the move myself.
Good work
Vb............... Keep it up!
