CX Cadet Scheme
 

Hi there everyone, does anybody know what to expect regarding CX Cadet Scheme selection procedure?

Chunks

Yup, just been through the entire process. Send me a mail [email protected]

I don't know what you can expect on the selection procedure but I know what you can expect as a pilot for CX.

CX is probably the most unsecure airline to work for. In a long run expat will probably be replaced by mainland comrades any way. Bottomline, not a secure place to work one way or the other.

Pg & MG,


Why would an airline comtinue to take great expense in shelling the bugs bunny for future intakes then in it current climate??? Is Cathay living a "Pilot dispute" that all in all cannot be resolved???
Please are you at the centre of resolving this great issue???

Ford Airlane: I ain't got a clue what you are talking about. In English please. (or American if that's what you prefer)

Middlepath, I think you're probably right about the mainland Chinese pilots being handed CX flightdeck postions on a plate in the not so distant future.
I agree that newly arrived expats no longer have any hope at achieving a long term career from 25 to 55 at CX, however, that should not negate the fact that, despite the war that is being waged between mgmt and the pilots, CX is one of only a few if not the only decent airline at which to gain entry with only 3500TT spent in King Airs and to then receive one's BOEING HEAVY ratings. Today it should be treated as a stepping stone along the pathway leading to a flight career to be achieved elsewhere. Anywhere else. This is the way I will be approaching the matter. I'm looking at doing 3 years as an S/O followed by 2 or 3 years as an F/O and BUHBYE CX.
