CX gave a female, local FO three shots at Command (letting her through in the end). Round-eyed lads were **** canned after two attempts at Command.
Only after this was raised with the company (and the injustice and possible bad-press explained) has the company now decided to review the status of these non-local, non-chick pilots.
But, they have to go through sim sessions, PCA Tech interviews, additional line checks etc etc before it is decided if they are to get a third go at Command.
So what you are saying is that expats have to go through the same hoops to get their commands as the locals?
...and yes she passed 2nd attempt, like so many other people, expat and non-expat!
