WJAPilot,
But I do believe that CSA is investing alot of money on this and they have many guys to take internally for a simple cruise relief captaincy...
ie draw from their own narrow body Captains?
How does that differ from you? Aren't you at present a 737 driver? Just keeping it real!!
If your base changes equipment they have even said that they will retrain you.
Your statement sounds very niave. This group (Chinese) will promise you anything to get you on contract. A little research online will provide plenty of evidence why the Chinese CANNOT be trusted. Be prepared for plenty of promises but none will be delivered. If they say they will retrain you to the equipment that changes at your base have them put that in your contract. Let us all know how that works out. I have experience in SE Asia (although not China) and have former colleagues at CSA and they have either quit or are regretting their decision. Beware.
