Not at all, I am pointing out that your outburst was completely factually incorrect. The recent transfers to the 747 have nothing whatsoever to do with redundant KA pilots.

Hardly an 'outburst' , merely a statement of fact. KA was demolished because KA had the greater proportion of local pilots. Now Swire is trying to justify that decision by talking about costs. It is sad that Hong Kong Government appears to still have very little aviation knowledge and so continues to follow the Swire Line, just like it has done since the beginning of aviation in Hong Kong.

This argument is completely academic. As long as the HK government keeps these ridiculous and illogical quarantine rules, there will be no HK aviation industry to be scrapping over.
And with all these variants developing and the governments lack of appetite for risk, HK remains virtually closed for the future and its aviation industry

Even more academic if this is true.

Oh dear! And without a proper seniority system in POS18 (which was their cunning plan all along), it’s gonna be OPEN SEASON come 1st of June.
The lucky few who moved to the 400, good on ya.
For the rest of the 777 drivers, and a few bus ones: that’s the Fat Lady you hear singing

“It ain’t over ‘til the fat lady sings”, used to be the favourite saying of the esteemed Leon Richardson, who, in his time, gave such excellent financial advice to us on RTHK Radio 3. I wonder what would be his financial advice now. Anyway, thanks guys for the input about the fat lady. I too could never find a reference about this fat lady until now.
