Good day mates! I have applied for the program last year and after a month or two, Cathay invited me for the initial step or 1a as they call it. Unfortunately, I didn’t get in because I was underprepared. It was my term in uni when I got the invite and I was studying for my finals.
I updated my application and still waiting for their reply...and it has been a year and a half.
Can anyone add me to their facebook / telegram / viber study/discussion groups where I could ask study materials from. My username is Hans Eco.
Thank you everyone

Hello wannabes.
A quick question about secondary school grades. I didn't have the opportunity to take Physics in school and my maths was very bad in HKDSE. Is Cathay lenient with school grades? I worked as a mechanic in aircraft maintenance if that helps. Thank you.

Hello, I am planning to apply in this month and would like to join the study group. I did open an account for registration for CX cadet pilot before. However when I was trying to complete it today, I could not find the option for cadet pilot only for second office and first officer. Does everyone have the same problem as mine or is it just me?

Yes I failed last year and re-applied at the end of Nov 2018 and received invitation which held at 10 Dec 2018. There is a bit difference from last year that you would need to take ICAO English test by yourself if you pass the Initial A, before B. It costs 1920HKD paid by yourself as said in the email. It looks like they are keep changing selection process....

I find it intriguing how all the CX pilots are posting warnings, yet you wannabe pilots simply ignore it. Either Hong Kong is really in the shitter when it comes to employment or you all have a deficiency in foresight.

They are not gonna ask you for money for sure, but what they would do is to stop paying you allowance for the first 3 years. 3 years of HKPA is about 500,000ish HKD, in other words, you are bearing 50% of the cost, comparing to those guys who joined before POS18. Hope it helps.

I failed last August and was told I wasn't going to be reconsidered for another year, just got an invite for Stage 1 on 9/1, but the process has changed, now they do tech quiz + aptitude, then have you pay for their ICAO English proficiency before even getting to Initial B...
