ETOPS,
I was working on 4 years as an SO, plus 200hrs ADL or other basic training and any previous experience (for the ones who unfortunately joined the C-scale with some good flying hours).
But agreed..in regards to EY without QL not doable as a 200hr hero...but QR is def possible...
Effectively the decision will be made by the wives since it is impossible to raise a family on C-scale in HKG...that villa in DXB/AUH/DOH is a lot better than 1000 sqft gross in Tung Chung.
