HOLD ON! You mean, instead of learning to fly with your own money, having to endure many years in general aviation, getting paid peanuts flying in a death trap, and the forever stress of finding the next job in your career, you CADETS decided to take the shortcut and joined the Cathay Pacific's Cadet program KNOWING full well that you were/are NOT entitled to housing allowance, just so you can wear that pretty uniform and the hat and become an airline pilot?!
GET REAL! Housing allowance is for those who've done the hard yard. There were two paths in front of you when you made that decision, and you chose the cadet route. LIVE WITH IT!
Bunch of whinging and b8tching pilots.
