Glad you know my logbook better than me.
MOST airlines recognize SO time? What in the hell are you smoking? SO time is the free **** you do to get in the right seat and start logging real time. And, as mentioned, you don't log your bunk time. You can know your logbook as much as you want, but it sounds like your logbook is a little fudged and a real airline is going to throw it back at you and you will not get hired. Not to worry, though -- there's always China, India and the Middle East for you to peddle your Parker Pen time.

Anotherday.
To be fair, 'upgrade' from TC to TCC is NOT an upgrade and carries no increment, NOR is it voluntary, as ALL TC's HAVE to become TCC'S.
NOW, volunteering for training, or to go TCC to STC etc., that is a different kettle of fish.
Glad I'm going!

Anotherday: EVERY member of the HKAOA that took an upgrade in training after May 2015 is no longer a member of the HKAOA. Fact!

Anotherday, you're obviously not in the AoA and obviously a management troll.

I can think of 3 scabs who have been expelled (or resigned from the union just before being given the boot) after they took a training job or upgraded from within.

And don't worry, I'm quite sure the rest of us members will remember their names for a looooong time.

So every AOA member who has upgraded in training in the last 2 and a bit years is out of the AOA? What about all the guys in Hong Kong who took Command upgrades while guys on bases turned them down to stay true to CC. How's that fair.
Pick and choose, it appears.

I'm not sure how delaying command on the base is the same as delaying command in Hong Kong.... lots of people were doing that anyway, seems silly to then say it was for "staying true to" contract compliance.

Nobody on a base deferred their command to stay true to CC. It was to stay true to lifestyle and their children's upbringing! Anyone who claims different is full of BS.

Quite simple really, fly with the based guys, talk to them. Those with families happily settled are generally staying on the base, those whose kids have grown up, several are coming back to Hong Kong for their command. Not a word about contract compliance from anyone of them in their thinking process.

I concur. Lifestyle is the main reason.
