I agree as TP stated, most Chinese carriers are looking for current within 12 months as a Captain on A 320 or 737NG. The female will have no problem getting a job in China as a Captain. My airline has several and in China if you are competent, no matter what sex you are, you will get the job. Honestly though I can't imagine the lure of 2 Major Airline pilots making excellent salaries collectively, wanting to come to China and be an Ex-Pat. I know many Ex-Pats who would gladly trade places if it were possible though.

My opinion is the upgrade from an E-145 to A-320 may be promised as an attractor but don't believe it as I don't think it will ever materialize. I know Tianjin has upgraded a few E145 to 190 types but not many if any at all will cross over to the A 320. China is a great place to earn big money in the short term but a very difficult environment on many fronts for the long term. I would say 6 years is about the maximum most guys will last here. Having said that, 6 years at 200K plus per year should make you financially sound for awhile if you are financially prudent and wise.
