On final

Last post for awhile..
But why would you want a 330 position at VNA. They have 9x330, their IPO prospectus (dated Nov 2014 and updated with a local press release last week) says all will be gone within 2 years, as the 14 replacement and growth 350s arrive..they will intermix the 330 flying with the 19x787 that arrive and they will keep 4x777...
So you would be looking at having to pay for an expensive transition(if offered), no salary during training, bond etc within 2 years..
They will get 5x787 and 4x350 this year so already by the end on 2015 50% of their current widebody fleet 9x777 & 9x330 will be replaced..
Perhaps that is why they have suspended 330 hiring while they figure out the most commercially and operationally feasible plan to crew these aircraft..
