Jizz,
I hope you are right, but 2000 pilots seems like a bit of a stretch when there are not even that many CX pilots based in Hong Kong. Also, who's going to pay all those mortgages, certainly not 120K per month. If they add schooling to the mix 120K might look attractive to some expat FOs lower on the seniority list and perhaps some LEPs, but you'd have to crazy to jump at that from a CX captain's seat or even being close.
