Every time a Fleet Captain is out for a meeting in HKG, they say it's coming. 18 Months ago we were told 24 months. Last meeting (April time frame I believe, it was after the IND base was announced so maybe May?) we were told, yes it will happen but with the start of IND base no time frame. Did hear from a crew bus driver in CAN last week that it will happen any day..however my Mandarin is not good, and he could have said, do you want fries with that?....

I'm sure we will find out out after the deal has been cut for us to give up something...

And having been there myself I can tell you that HKG is a exceptional location, if one can stand to live outside the U.S.

Actually in CAN. They speak both Mandarin and Cantonese as Guangzhou was formally known as Canton..and Since I do live here..and I happen to speak a little Cantonese and a little Mandarin, he was absolutely asking about fries.....
