About 60% of CX pilots are now full fare AOA members.That means fully paid up. Howls of protest! Get into it.
When the ban is lifted, which is the only way there will ever be a
resolution to this mess- all the recent joiners will have to be asked to join the AOA.
So join up folks, thats the only possible scenario, the only other
possibility is that the AOA will continue slowly destroying itself.
Either way, all the recent joiners will be invited into the AOA.
Its a no brainer, all recent joiners will be invited in otherwise the
AOA will be even more irrelevent. Sorry not management, just fed
up.
Don't believe the courts will stop the rot, all it achieves is more
conflict and distance between the parties. The courts may get some compensation for individual 49'er's but the overall scheme
will prevail. If QF pilots can't stop a B scale operation with 100%
membership what hope for the AOA . Get real, drop the ban, get
talking, and try to take the rhetoric back to a mature level, things
were better in colonial days.

Is this thread/poll necessary? Can we please shut this thread down?
The Recruitment Ban at CX is over therefore the argument about joining in/out of the ban is defunct.
There is no recruiting here at the moment, all those on intial courses have been sent home (on full pay) until "late August eraly Sept".

of course I would go there... the times are over where pilots could make demands and had to make 300000 us$ a year... at the moment it's the owners/shareholders/board's show....

I would have loved to work for cathay however,
had my first interview in sydney back in 2001 and was told within a few weeks that i had a second interview but was not given a confirmed date due to the cathay medicos wanting a monthly update on a minor medical problem.
after the 6 months of updates as requested i again spoke to the powers that be and continued to send more medical updates ,since then i have tried to contact with regard to my status and got nowhere.
the medical problem was that "bad" it didnt even appear on my medical as a requirement.
anyway about 6 months ago i finally gave up trying(bit of a shame but thats the way it goes in the aviation game)

Actually, I dont have anything worthwhile to add to this topic.....I just thought that since it's been going for so long it would be a pity if it slipped onto 'page 2' so I thought i'd add this to bring it back to the top!
