Air Hongkong 744 BCF Rumour!
 

Does anyone know if AHK is getting three 744BCF's from CX in April 2010?
Rumour is the AHK boys will fly it!:ok: What about the CX boys?:=

It's a wet lease.

The wet lease is for the current 747 flying HKG-SIN-HKG. This is regarding an additional 3 more 747's to be dry leased from CX.

CX don't have 747. Only 744

AHK 747(CX BCF) has been on wet lease since March 09, any additional airframes would likely be crewed the same way.(esp with CX getting one more BCF from Xiamen and 5 Parked in Victorville,including the first BCF delivered to CX)

To My Bonus
 

Your very intelligent leader at the time signed away the scope agreement with regard to Air Hong Kong.

These pilots have lower pay/benefits and this is an option we are seeking. Our 744 Check and Training Group will be training the Air Hong Kong Pilots but the final command checks will be completed by Management Pilots only to ensure a satisfactory pass rate.

As long as we have a lower paid group with lower operating costs, we will transfer flying to that group, which will ensure My Bonus.

The Management

As long as some contracts have the scope agreement in it still applies:ok:

MD11 or B744 AHK
 

AHK has been looking to lease 3 MD11 or B744 for about 6 months. This is not new news.

AEROLOGIC flying in Asia?
 

Why would DHL use an expensive European operator to service their routes (in Asia)which are operated by the 'cheapest of the cheapest ' (Transmile/AHK etc..)

Probably because Aerologic are not going to fly the AHK routes :rolleyes:

With regard to the BCF's possible. AHK is certainly pointing towards expansion over the next 12 months - if you look at all the telltale signs.

BCF's are probably one of the better (Cheaper) OPTIONS for them however - wet lease or dry lease who knows. Current recruitment / pilot numbers at AHK may give a clue as to who crews them.

CX couldn't possibly provide 744 crew as we are desparately short and training Freighter Captains as fast as we can...... err... hang on.... 9 most junior captains drafted back to the Airbus soonest... WTF?

And KA
 

Plus all the KA ex 747 and 744 crew being trained onto the 'bus where they are not needed. Is there a plan? Will we be told?

:)any news?:ugh:

Will we be told??? SURE! Via the SCMP like every other time. :hmm:

Based on 'Dekka and Management' seem a good possiblilty.. ;)

All based around the A380 plan don't you know. Its very hush hush at the moment but all will be revealed in the coming missive to the troops.

Please take the excess BCF's. There noisy and old!!!! Back of the clock to SG is not for me. Enjoy.
How much extra will you guy's go for? You cannot fly them for your current pay.

Give away CX seniority list jobs because you do not like staying up at night....really smart. Are you by chance a CN already?

Mayday

What if?
 

Not if some of the current guys are on the move across the street with the A330 rolling in next year......then again...........just never know!!:ok:
