Sounds good in theory but this is not Australia with a large pool of G.A pilots. Perhaps you dont have any idea of what happens in China?

It could be due to pilots leaving Hong Kong as soon as their bond is over or have enough hours on type
That is called market forces. You pay crap, act crap and treat your staff like crap, they walk.

So what your saying is to solve the problem we need to hire Asian pilots..... um where from? They wont leave Cathay or Dragonair and all Chinese mainland pilots are bonded for life plus mainland China has its own grand plans for expansion and world domination.

You have the Management mentallity. Trying to bypass the problem rather than improve the conditions and make pilots want to stay.

The turnover is not entirely about housing or schooling. It is the overall package and attitude.

And dont forget... Many of the pilots that have left previously were Chinese.
