HK Express Second Officer Recruitment
Anyone is interested?
Does anyone have any clue on the PAY SCALE for UO 2nd officer?
Not much information can be found online.
Qualifications:
- HKCAD CPL Holder issued under HKCAD Approved Integrated Course
- Valid HK Permanent ID Holder
I guess more local airlines (HX, UO.....) may start preparing to accept graduates from HKIAA cadet pilot program, any thoughts?
Many Thanks!

Great to hear that and wish you good luck!
Do you have any ideas on its remuneration package?
Tried to contact HKE, Flygosh and do some research online but in vain....
Just want to understand it for reference.
Many Thanks!

How can you be an SO on an A320?
Seriously nobody should sign up for this, this is why T&C’s are in the toilet. You would be flying as an FO getting SO pay.
There will only be 2 pilots on board, a captain and an FO.
I suppose you will be buying your type rating as well.

It did exist when Cathay dragon (KA) was still there.
Once you graduated from KA cadet program you would be SO but trained for FO's job tasks (including takeoff and landing).
Your rank was still SO but getting FO pay.
It might or might not be the case for HKE but I just wanna to ask and know about it.
Moreover, no one needs to buy his/her type rating for joining any CPL250 posts in Hong Kong.
You might be confused with some other SE Asian airlines.

Yep, lots of senior FOs with good passports. Upgrade time went down to 5 years on the big boys fleet. 500 hrs and they are gone.

As regular SLF, it’s getting frickin scary who is up front these days.
How many have hand flown an aircraft in IMC on limited panel?? Probably even more scary, how many have hand flown an aircraft (not simulator) full stop?!!

Just curious, in CX, the SO can only fly above 20k feet I think, and mostly does fuel checks. What would the SO do at HK Express?
Also, the local bus firms are hiring for up to 31k / month. Would UO SO make that level?

How scared are you if you're flying with them regularly?
How do you know who is up the front?
How do you know their experience, qualifications, or if/when, they have flown limited panel?
Are you as equally concerned about the abilities of the Cabin Crew? Engineers?
Sounds to me like someone's a bit bitter about something...
