Technical competence of pilots is an important cog within the machinery of an airline's standard of operations. Cathay Pacific has to be aware that the knock-on effects of pilots' incompetence can result in not only loss of hardware (aircrafts), but more importantly - the loss of lives. I have avoided travelling on CX years ago, and also deliberately avoided flying on China mainland-based airlines when possible. I do admit - it is a trust issue.
Just read that Cathay Pacific trainee pilots have damaged so many planes,Arizona-based AeroGuard Flight Training Center has banned them from solo flights
我聽咗幾個KOL講單case，我嘅感覺就係AeroGuard，又要威又要戴頭盔，學習飛機嘅時候做得solo，學生有幾多斤両個飛行教官一定知道，landing 是否on centre line，降落是否靚仔，頭轆落地，偏離跑道，100個學員有99個都係咁。每次返嚟架機有冇問題，無論機械還是外殼，必定會有報告寫落本logbook是否輕描淡寫，還是從嚴，學生夠唔夠膽漏報，臨時駕駛執照隨時會釘牌咁就毁你一生。當然大家冇睇過封信寫乜嘢，但係感覺不是給國泰航空同公眾看，而是給美國FAA投名狀，既然要同中國割蓆，好快就會同國泰終止訓練機師合約。
