Trainers and checkers are well remunerated for their extra responsibility. They volunteer for it, and don't do it out of charity. They don't 'give their lives'. They can always quit training. Some of them on this forum bang on about how bad things are but continue to 'help' the company in this role.
It can also be argued that they are voluntarily diluting our contract by training pilots who are on lower conditions than their own, who will eventually replace them and us, thereby contributing to the Race to the Bottom.
cxorcist, would I be right in saying that UAL pilots would be living in their home country, and would not require housing and education, just like CX based crew, as opposed to a fit and proper 'expat' package that HKG pilots should be getting?
