I think the package is good. FO earns 93,000HK$ / month. Prob take 2-3yrs to get to that stage from second officer. I have 3000tt. What do you guys reckon?
I reckon you are either a liar, ie in one thread you have 3000 hours TT and a few posts further on (see below) you say you have close to 4000 hours TT, or you are a troll posting posts from the third floor.
Jizzmonkey. I've got close to 4000hrs with 2000 hrs twin turbine plus university degree. So no not an idiot. I don't think so anyway haha. I got a good chance I've had more aviation jobs and experience then you by the sounds of things....but getting off topic there.
The Cathay Cadet is 74grand base.
Where do you get 74 grand base from? Even if you include HKPA + HDP you are about AUD$5000 off. All you may care about now is earning more than smaller jet guys but do you care that by accepting this offer you will be helping to push down the T&C of existing CX pilots? Of course you think an FO earns 93 base as well and you will be an SO for only 2-3 years.

SO year one = HK$35170 pm
+
HKPA = HK$10000 pm
+
HDP = HK$3314 pm based on working 84 hours month – 3 weeks annual leave. HDP isn’t paid when on annual leave or sick leave.
=
HK$48484 pm
=
HK$581808 py
=
AUD$69260 py

Plus you get 110grand aussie forgiveable loan with cathay
You"ll also get an extra HK$187000 tax bill on top of your normal tax from the IRD.

You know what the hardest thing about being a liar is? Keeping the story consistant.
