You guys just keep on beating this dead horse. It is a moot point. They have the interest needed to staff the airline at the current rate offered.

I know of a few who aren't going because the package isn't lucrative enough, but apparently the company targeted the pay/benefits well enough to get the interest they needed. That's just smart business.

1. Moron brought it up again.

2. It isn't smart business, it is plain skanky. Unless, of course it is ethical to take advantage of children that don't have full information, who are apparently to lazy or dumb to get the proper facts.

3. Taking this contract because it is a little better than what you are getting now is the same reason Mexicans come north. It might be a little better, but you will have a hard life and everyone in your new world will look down on you.

You guys have been told. The stupidity is on you now. Perhaps, you should put down the Lonely Planet Vietnam edition. Worry about learning the finer points of eating pho soup at a later date.

Start reading the sites that are frequented by expats and see what they say about contract flying and the pay rates.

Just wait until they get in country and the other contract pilots there give them the cold shoulder. Good luck figuring it out on your own.
 
No, that is just taking advantage of pilots who aren't well informed of salary rates abroad and not given all the facts. We will keep beating on this dead horse as long as it takes for your pilot group to understand that the profit margins due to the S.E. Asia high yield market supports those higher salaries and that your company will be more than willing to increase the pay package to get into this market without scope restriction.

And we will beat on it some more after that because it is shameful that in the United States we have become the lowest paid professionals of all the industrialized nations and now we are going for the lowest paid of third world countries too.:puke:

Well said

I don't think there are any debates... More likely the locals are laughing at these guys because they are coming to work for less than they are. Then discuss how much they hate all foreign pilots.
