Military Pilots to Cathay
Hello all,
I am a F-18 pilot with about one year of time left in the US Navy. My old man used to work for Cathay when I was growing up and because he enjoyed his experience, I am now considering following in his footsteps.
Just had a couple of questions and I would greatly appreciate any feedback.
First, how does Cathay looks at centerline thrust multi-time?
Second, (and I realize this may sound rediculous), does Cathay have any military reservist on its books? Meaning, can I still fly in the reserves while working for Cathay?
Third, Fourth, and so on...
What is the typical time frame for advancement from SO to FO to Captain?
Do new pilots ever get based outside of HK or is it required to live in HK for a period after you join?
and.....
How are ex-militay pilots/military flight time viewed by those that hire?
Again any feed back is appreciated.
