Received these words in an email from Cathay Pacific a couple of weeks ago:
"We recently received the Training Plan outlining the crew requirements for 2013, and unfortunately it indicates a reduction in our training requirements from those originally projected for the next twelve months. The ground school quota for the short term future will be fulfilled by new joiners currently on course. Unless there is a change to the current projection, it looks unlikely that we will have a requirement to commence any new Second Officer TT courses within the next 10 to 12 months."
Don't expect much to happen anytime soon, sorry to burst anyones bubble, but no one else seemed to be posting the facts!
