HKE/HKA Unpaid Leave

Absolutely unbelievable! Staff at HKE received a "SMS" advising some staff that effective immediately they were on unpaid leave for a week.
What a mature approach in trying economic times.

Shame on you HKE management

Naughty Australians hey????

How many Aussies do you see trying to take off on a taxiway?
How many Aussies do you see climbing through 14,000feet with the packs still turned off?

Maybe its all about racism? Maybe its not?

BUT These Idiots seem to want to get rid of the Western pilots so they can be awarded as the most unreliable and unsafest airline in the world to ever fly on!

I feel sorry for the ppl involved!...

Bloody shame...

Aussies are western pilots?

Only just then. Mate don't put yourself in the same group as Europeans or North Americans. We have to fly around mountains and weather and icing. Not just worry about the right words at the correct moment. I guess the Aussies are exceptional at winging. That's something to be proud of. I suppose.
