Any chance they offer a commuting contract similar to what the mainland offers? I am 4 weeks on/4 weeks off, but really want to get out of the mainland.

Is the info on this page accurate?

EVA Airways pilot jobs news for airline pilots and aviation schools

Zero chance.

That's probably a little dated, but not too far off.

The Taiwanese carriers have lost dozens if not hundreds of pilots to the mainland carriers in the last few years. They get better pay and more time off at mainland carriers and it's a much easier transition for them with the language and culture.

Others are leaving for the ME carriers.

FAT has increased their MD-80 pay from about $7000/month when they re-started to $10,000/month to try to retain guys.

It's too bad, I'd far rather live and work in Taiwan than the mainland. It's a night and day difference in quality of life, but the pay is just shockingly low.

Thanks for the response, who's FAT?

Is it Far Eastern Air Transport?

Yes, FAT for short. That's what they paint on their tails.

Thank you so much.

Fly Safe!

FAT itself
 

Any contact info for FAT???

Their website is in some sort of hieroglyphics!

10,000$ is not too bad.

I wouldn't mind then going on to the 757 and/or 737 which is what is says are coming via of course, Wikipedia. This is assuming they hire Roundeyes?

Thx

Oh F$&@ I forgot about typhoons and earthquakes!

China Airlines too
 

Looks like they need loads of folks too and are hiring into the left seat?

Any word?

Thx again.
