im 15 now and it is my ultimate dream to become a cathay pacific pilot or qantas pilot. it looks like i will be doing the cathay pacific cadetship because i am able to get a HKID although i live in perth my dad lives in HK for work.
All of the above has given me doubts about the cathay cadetship course and how they treat their pilots, but I know if i dont do this i wont be happy doing anything else, i will always be thinking what it would be like to being flying for my ultimate airline.
So yes it will be a struggle and not much pay and so fourth but i already know i love the city (due to me flying up there on my holidays to see dad!) and I am prepared too take on the hardship for multiple years but in the long run it will hopefully pay off.
But still i am open to suggestions to how i should follow my aspiration to fly for BA,CX or QF since i have an australian passport, british passport and HKID.
