Jump to postLooks like the chairperson you're talking about was me, haha. It's been quite some time since I had the time to hang around up here. I'm one of the chairpersons last year out the the four high schools which have Aviation Club in HK, it's such a small community here. Aio86, to begin with, I'll like t...
Jump to posthey papers on board......that means no fire
Jump to postYOu may have higher expectations to the airline from what you originally think. KE has its inflight service and everything improved. But most KE flt attendants don't know good English, be more patient with the language part, and I bet they are not the best foreign-language speaking airline. But I ca...
Jump to postAs topic.
The plane models are 743 cargo, B737 and L 1011, any more?

i am not too equiped with cameras, but mind me asking, is that a digital?

Hey, HKG_CLK
What equipment did you use to get such clear pictures?
Samuel
Oh man , oh man` Its so excited here and I have been pretty unactive on the board these days~ Wow! It would be super to meet all the aviation lovers on Sat.........oooo...but i think i couldn't make it, too bad. Oh yeh, I think i don't personally know any of you guys here, maybe if we could meet nex...
Jump to posthow often it comes to HKG?
I've seen it a few times, but never when I am spotting. Wonder if anybody have its schedule?
DOes any body know how many passengers, crews and pilots were on board the United flights which crashed? I am sorry to mention this, but I need it for a report, and its pretty urgent, thanks to all
Jump to postI think there were bombs inside the WTC also, or else why could the WTC be blown up liek that? It certainly couldn't be only of structural problems.
Is it really that easy to pick bombs into the buildings?
I am in HK, and i have recieved the news here at 10 mins past the hour~>
there are 2 planes.......thats all i have got
shut up man~>
DOn't you think you are a buster?~
WHy do airlines have to get their ETOPS certificate themselves? Isn't it supposed to be Boeing who needs to get the cert?. I just don't get it~
Jump to postWhy not shut up, CXCPA) You seem like mentally retarded
Jump to posti've sort've got those things. But I think they are a bit small. I actually want the ones which are like air oranges designs>
If any of u have ideas about, or could u post the link of that page up here~?
Hey!!
it was long since I have posted a message, well, I just want to know where I can get some technical copies of B747 , so that i could do some c/s drawings., Anyideas?`
Thanks!
how can you know if the pilots are using reverse power except by listening to the huge noise produced?
Jump to postWell, have a nice trip. But asking really doesn't hurt. I visited a China Southern 757 cockpit 3 days ago returning home from HaiNan Island to HKG. It was only a 1 hour flight though, and I was super super lucky and the cabin crews and officers were just super super nice!!!! I even got to stay for t...
Jump to postTHe pilots have the final decision, the airport reports the airport situation to them, and they can land as soon as the airport is open.
Jump to postI wonder if my request on board a China Southern 757 would sucess??
Jump to postVery confusing~
Well, do you have any idea about AirCanada?
CX flyboy, where does the HOX usally fly to, and also when do they appear in HK. Coz I seem to never see them around!! Or, is the paint ripped yet?
Thanks
Air Canada A340 Star Alliance c/s from YVR to HKG
Jump to postHey, HKGspotter, his bug is not on his ass, it's eating his ass/.
Jump to postAs i said before, different occupations and professionals have different salaries. Do you think a street sweeper can earn more 12000 a month? This is a simple piece of fact that you must understand. A pilot is a professional which needs to be trained over and over again. Can you meet this goal? No. ...
Jump to postIndeed an idiot, and what?.....Yah, a gibbering little shit.
you're not including me in the KIDS which are SXXT?? ARe u~?........haha I was just making fun of it!~ Oh, haven''t heard lately from the news about CX, it's being described as plastic! OK, I was at the airport today(18/7), and the clouds came smach9ing from the west, looked pretty like a tornado1! ...
Jump to postCX Flyboy, don't you remember he was from the revolutionary period in the 30's. Not much of a living standard back then, so just tip it off!!>..haha
More of a whimp I suppose, I wanna know where he studies.
HAHAHAHA..........correct, and totally agree!!
Jump to postCXCPA, I am really surprised to hear you could be a totally ontime pilot all the time, even in between industrial actions. You really need to set up a model to prove how to be a pilot. I'll be willing to learn and I am sure if you become a pilot, you will be in that 10 percent who goes with the comp...
Jump to postCX flyboy, if these posts about CX and the management happens to read it, plus they know who you are, anything will happen to you?
Jump to postWHich airline other than Cathay hires the best pilots with a high pay? Perhaps AC...or others?/////
Can they get pilots from there to replace the ones they fired? It sure will bring to the same problem, but maybe better, as they will take a contract instead. correct me if i am wrong.!!!thanks
I agree with Cathay250's points, especially about the part of reasonable salaries. The HK economy is bad, but many companies still can afford a pay rise, but yah, they need to be reasonable. Also the price of an industrial action is very tough, it well shouldn't be taking so long to solve the proble...
Jump to postUse your brains CXCPA, of course they will earn less then last year because of all the things happening. But they earned a lot last year. And they can definately afford the increase in salary. And as a matter of fact, don't trust everything from the paper. I am sure the even the pilots will think th...
Jump to postCXCPA, I think you need to make clear the relationships between THe Swire group and Cathay Pacific.Has Swire spoken about this incident yet? Swire owns Cathay, and does not manage it. Swire group has its own management, and CX does also. They are two separate systems and run 2 different things. THer...
Jump to postHKGspotter, where do you live so that you could recieve the ground and some other controls?
I am trying to recieve the ground controls from North point, which I really can't. ANy ways I can do that? Or maybe an attenna change??
Thanks!!
AC 826
Not too sure, though the captain who was fired was due to this reason
Jump to postBut I think CXCPA are just taking things from the paper and slamming the pilots for what they are doing. Fair, huh?
MAybe i can say he is a copy of the newspaper
