CREWSUNITE,
Very well written, but you assume HKA is actually run as an airline.
Its very much not. Its managed by an ever changing cast of losers that last about 8-12 months, have no direction, and little experience.
There is not, nor has there ever been an approved upgrade course with HKCAD.
More importantly, whenever anyone actually useful gets in, ie the last Ex KA TRE, they are met with insolence, mistrust, and a overriding lack of respect.
Hence they leave within a month and HKA is worse off than before they began the exercise.
HKA could be great.
Once they get a proper WESTERN management team AND the Hainan groups actually listens to them.
Which is gonna happen around never..
