Hi, thanks for the info, but could anyone further explains this?
No PA for the first 3 years or for the entire career?
Thanks!

For the first 3 years only cause this 16,000/mo is paying for your cadet training.
After 3 years, you will receive the PA again.

Thinking about applying for the next intake. Does anyone know the duration of the "forgivable loan", knowing new cadets won't get housing allowance for the first three years??

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
I trayed to call there but you dont answer.

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....

BTW does anyone know where can I take the ICAO test online or any tuition class in HK? Many thanks!

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?

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 ****ter when it comes to employment or you all have a deficiency in foresight.
