Foreign Domiciles
I'd be really careful about being a beta tester for a new intl domicile. If I remember correctly, the initial cadre of Subic pilots were promised some things that never materialized like nicer housing, good schools for the kids, and reasonable medical care--all core issues. And I don't believe they got any company guidance about tax ramafications. Kinda like buying a car in its first model year, unless you really want it be cautious and let someone else blaze the trail.

I just don't see FS spending any capital outlays for pilots. If the host government will give us some breaks, fine; "don't cost us nuthin'!'
I also don't think CDG would be as good as a witness protection plan locale as Subic currently is. There are guys that have been in Subic for a long time and more power to them.

The sliding landings on the belt were considerably softer than any that a monitor has experienced while in the back of an MD-11 during one of MY landings!

If you think landings are hard, you should go for a quick ride in a delivery truck.
