As for PC I just hope he doesn’t try to emulate his father who was a nasty piece of work and can never be forgiven for what he did to the pilots years back

My mate Castor says that’s a load of Pollux.

A Scale DE-SO

Absolutely nothing to do with daddy right ?

At the risk of spoiling a good rumor I’ll set the record straight regarding PC...
He joined as a Contract S/O on B scale, mid 1993.
There were 10 ex GA guys taken as a test case, so he had previous turbine time (a requirement back then)
After 2 years, with no upgrade or permanent career path or seniority number in sight, 7 of the 10 left with their 747-400 P2 ratings ( yes, NO P2X in those days)most to join QF.
CX actually blinked at that and gave the remaining guys a career path by upgrading to JFO on the Classic... but still no seniority until the QL was passed. Lost about 200 seniority numbers due to DEFO throughout that period.
As to what COS PC is on today... well... who knows, but he certainly wasn’t A scale.
And yes, I was there. And no, I’m not management. No sympathy for the mess they’ve created.
