Now looking at FO positions the Cathay website states the following:

An ICAO Airline Transport Pilot's License (ATPL) (obtained without exemptions) or ICAO Commercial Pilot's License (CPL) (obtained without exemptions) with passes in all ATPL ground examinations

My question is this. Do FAA certificates count as ICAO equivalent, or would I need to transfer my certificates to something else?

Also, what is the tax/cost of living situation in Hong Kong? That looks like a lot of money, but I wonder if it really is adjusted for what I assume must be pretty high rent in a city as densely populated as Hong Kong.
