The Uncle Rico reference deserves recognition; that’s excellent.
As an aside, I’m plotting my escape from a large HKG-based carrier due to the ever-worsening horror show unfolding.
Odds of getting on with a major with zero TPIC or degree? I’m on about 5000 hours split between 777 and A350 FWIW.
I cut my teeth outside the US so fit a quite different profile.
I appreciate I should move this elsewhere (and I’ll ask the wider APC audience); but while you’re here…
cheers all.
