Long live the "Pilot's Brevet" Thread !
Fareastdriver,
It's hard keeping up with the twists and turns of your complicated story! But surely, for an enormously skilled and responsible job, where they can sack you on a week's notice, a salary of £68,000 pa (plus £750 pm exs) is rather niggardly, I would have thought . How long ago would that have been ? (just look at the salaries recently on offer here in China for 320 and 737 pilots).
There doesn't seem to be much loyalty shown to you by some of your employers, but I suppose that's the common lot of the "casual" worker - you don't know where your next job/meal is coming from, do you ?
Thank you for sharing your tales of Old China with us (and hope there are many more to come) for they're unique, and the more day-to-day routine details, the better. This Thread has always been the most popular and entertaining one on this Forum; not only that, it is forming an intensely valuable world archive of flying and ground engineering experiences as far back as living memory goes. Cliffe Leach (RIP) builded better than he knew when he started this seven years ago,
Cheers, Danny
