AOA Survey

Only about 540 people have completed the survey!
That's only about half of the membership of the AOA alone.
Come on guys pull your fingers out!
It only takes 5 minutes of your precious time.

A reminder, engaging in any kind of industrial action with The Cathay Pacific Group will have a direct impact on some careers. Are you willing to take that risk?

Where will you go to find employment? Will your colleagues support you? I think we all know the answers.

Choose wisely.

Why do non-members have a say?
If you pay you have a say, if you don't pay, who cares!

Because the AOA wants to know the overall feelings of the entire pilot force. Members get to vote on any item negotiated.

Hey management if there was industrial action I agree it would effect some careers! Namely YOURS!
Choose wisely, as where are you going to go with your fantastic people dealing skills in your resume?

Why bother?

Try Again If Necessary

The AOA server was down for a few days last week and they 'lost' several emails - mine as well. I phoned and got my password, later confirmed by email so all is woirking now.

The AOA said that there would only be a month or so added on from their ASL additions. It is closer to 3 or 4 years. Without the AOA in existence we'd all still be looking at tops 8-9 years.

Are you trying to say that commands at CX occurring considerably quicker than at legacy carriers haven't been a strong draw card for pilots coming here? So you'd still have come if commands were going from 8 to 18 or 20 years?

Pull the other one.

I came when commands were running at 6-7 years. Mine took 14. Perhaps all the AOA members at that time should have had a whip around to make up my salary!!!

As far as ASL goes that cost me 3-4 years and if the freighters come back onto the seniority list to prevent out of seniority commands it can only be a reduction in time to command.

RA65 is different, yes there may be an increase in time to command. Without bypass pay you would not be compensated as I wasn't.

:Mine took 14

BusyB you're a B scaler, a GC negotiator, a training captain and joined Jul94.
Your numbers don't add up. The NCer would not be happy.
Why would you be bull****ting in PPrune?
