At the moment LCH is dealing only with chilean or chilean residents due to the 15% max foreign pilots in the new CBA. Now, the actual limit is 25%. What the CBA says is that for every 1% above the 15%, a bonus equivalent to 10% of the chilean pilot salary must be payed by the company
That's true
The number of English speaking pilots in Chile is limited
That's just... not true...
I fly corporate in Chile and every pilot i know (we're a small community) have at least decent english command, few of them even fly for 135 certificates in the US. An important number of us are in possession of FAA licenses.
Even i don't fly in LA, i'll have to say that most of LA, LU and UC Pilots (can't speak for LX, DM or LP) have average or above english skills, natural career track in the company takes you in your Senior FO ages to the 767 and a while ago to the A340, flying to busy english speaking terminal areas, sure you can find exceptions to this, but the gross percentage can operate with a fairly good english level.
