Let's be honest. Pilots are not the same as IT programmers or telemarketers. Of course the product from India is going to be a whole different standard from what CX crews are accustomed to. If this is where the airline is headed, we will be no different than any other Asian carrier. Under those circumstances, I'm not sure this would be a career airline for a gweillo like myself.

Please save the racist comments for someone PC. CX has built a reputation for being the safest airline in Asia and charges a premium for this reality. This has been accomplished by Western pilots. CX figures it can just bank on the past and fly pictures of Nigel B across its ads while hiring a bunch zero time, English second language pilots. Good Luck! We will certainly need it.
