Just heard the following. CX is transferring all the -400 freighters to Air Hong Kong. They are then planning on hiring direct entry Captains and FO's to crew them. Apparently they have already started interviewing. All of the CX pilots currently flying them will be incorporated into the pax fleets. Can you say "another 2-4 year delay to command" for those of us about to upgrade? This is the only way CX can deal with the crew shortage....simply shrink the airline. For those of you here in 1994, welcome to ASL mark II.
