Great to hear from you, will appreciate if you can provide me with some details on the companies operating in China using A320. Do you know the pay, sector allowance, night stop per diem etc?

I have not work in China, therefore any news and details is highly appreciated. My friends told me to check out the companies in Shanghai.
By the way are you flying in China?

Thank you.

Well, sad about your previous experience, as a Chinese, I'm also very sorry about what you mentioned, although I've never heard of it.
Guess everybody here is curious about your experience.

I have also never heard about this maffia stuff, appart from reading it here. I've been in China over a year now and no other pilots, expat or Chinese, I know have any clue about the Maffia conections either.
Maybe B737 Rider works for a western agency??? B737 Rider your welcome to go into more details and make me a believer!!!

maybe the lawyer just want exaggerate and make you believe how big a trouble they have saved you from
however,it's better to have a non-Chinese agent,the communication problem exists between pilots and them

Well, from what I have heared: Due to the great aviation boom in China, there are a lot of opportunity seekers trying to cash in. Its probably best to go with the well known recruiters, inspite of the fact that they have their drawbacks too. Hire an attorney for an hour or two to read your contract, before making your life changing transition. "small print" actually means creep up and get you in most instances.:ugh:

The private airlines in China Sucks!! they have no idea how to treat expat professionals, and I've not met anyone there who actually knew anything about the airlines business, plus it's a recipe for diaster.

It took me four months to take a basic ATP exam, medical,and english test then another two months to get the actualy ATPL license in hand before I could fly, then you're only allowed to operate on one or two route at most, did I mention with out pay on a single entry visa, so if you leave during that process you will have to re-apply for the visa.
Did I mention wthout pay? if you are geared up to go to China do it with, rishworth aviation, Parc or Direct.

Doggy Chinese agent still own me about $20k......


cheers

The local yellow pages may list Labor and Employment Law attorneys. Anyone with international labor law experience will be able to review a contract. They usually cost about $ 250/ hr or more. Should not be more than two hours. Shopping around may get you coupla free half hour interviews before you can decide to put down a few bucks.
