Hong Kong Airlines & the Application
I'm filling out the app for the direct entry A330 and A320 F/O positions. There are spaces for the dates of my written exams and the dates. Since I don't have this information, how should I complete this section?
Asking for the full resume, does this include a cover letter?
How is it to work for them? I'm in the regionals trying to make my escape, and I'm very open to going abroad.

Have you requested your pilot records and incident / accident record from OKC yet?
The exams requested follow the JAR / EASA format. You should at least have your CPL, Instrument, and ATP dates listed.
You are at the regionals, but you have 500 hours on the A330 for the DE FO position?
They made the news recently.

I am new to the expat contract world in Asia so take my opinions with a grain of salt. But my airline in China has also experienced a sudden number of resignations and I am hearing word that others are as well. I think this has a lot to do with the improving market in the United States and Europe. I know several guys who are finishing up their contracts and looking to move back. Most of them have are now debt free and have a bit of a nest egg built up so they figure they can afford to start over again on first year pay at an airline back home, be it the United States or Europe. Several others have used their time in Asia to work on a new degree in an effort to do something other than aviation.
