Here, I'll say the good things about Japan since you say I've only posted negative.
1. The people are very respectful
2. The air (we'll post Fukushima I'm not so sure now) was very clean
3. There is ALOT of culture to see
4. There is always fun things to do
5. If your single you will love it
6. If your married you may soon very well be single (:
7. They make awesome remote control models
8. The food is good
9. The contract is followed and your not screwed on the contract
10. The mx is good
11. ATC is good
12. You can do visual approaches unlike here in China. Heaven forbid the approach aids aren't working you might very well see another Asiana 777
13. The housing albeit small is nice
14. People are clean
Am I missing anything?

16. They are great at letting you break the rules when it helps them even though they would never do it.
17. They speak pretty good English.
18. They speak great Japanese.
19. Narita is capable of handling almost 10 airplanes at one time!
20. They make fantastic whiskey.
21. It's probably the cheapest place in the world to buy single malt Scotch.
22. Their McDonalds tastes better, has bette customer service, and never screws up an order.
That should do.

Hello Dominican,
Thanks for the great info on this sight.
I heard Air Japan never hire Japanese pilots there but how about Japanese American? There is a place to put Japanese name in Japanese language on the application lately. If I put Japanese name there, it could be bad isn't it? Not sure.

jrmyl... Just got a PM from one of the new guys stating that they are staying at the apart hotel..., maybe some guys are staying at the hotel due to overflow at the apartments??? That could be the case since we are getting so many new hires at the moment.., but this is just a guess, I don't know for sure.
