CSA / chinese pay

Yes, the HNA contract is pretty good if you get all the benefits.

Just got CSA PRC tax certificate for this year.

Gross salary for close to 1000 hours ( all with 4 man crew so 50% stick time or so) 280 000AUD including safety bonus..

Tax taken at 10% gross based on days in country ( tax cert says no more tax payable so assuming all good there).

In hand , 248000AUD I think.

Under ozzi tax law ( am reverse rostered MELB ) no more tax due so would be the equivalent of around 400 000AUD grossed up if you want to look at it that way. Around QF 380 skipper wages.

HNA is a good package , but if you dont get all the benefits it doesnt quite add up to the advertised amount as yet. unless I am missing something?

As far as China flying goes, yes domestic flying could be tedious but most of us at CSA dont do any / much of that.

Up and back from oz with a few EU two day trips to AMS/ CDG and soon FRA for a stein and swine!

Not too bad to be honest?

But of course there are always issues no matter where you go ... It is how you deal with them that counts.

not all beer and skittles but quite do-able!
