As passengers embarked on Fuzhou Airlines (FU) flight FU6519 and started another comfortable journey from Fuzhou to Shanghai on Oct. 5, they didn't know that the captain in command of their flight was the carrier's first foreign pilot.
The 53-year-old captain Janos is from Hungary. Being strong and muscular, the 1.8-meter-tall captain always wears an amiable smile.
Before joining Fuzhou Airlines, he has worked in several domestic and foreign airlines and flied B737NG, B747-400 and other types of aircraft, with 31 years' flight experience for over 16,000 hours.
When talked about why Janos chose to join Fuzhou Airlines, he made no effort to hide his passion for China and the anticipation for China's promising future. Faced with enormous development opportunities and advantages, Fuzhou Airlines is taking off healthily and strong.
It's learned that foreign pilots mostly have plentiful experiences and qualifications of various aircraft types. In addition to the pilot shortage in China, introducing foreign pilots has been domestic carriers' priority choice, which is essential for the internationalization development of Fuzhou Airlines.
Fuzhou Airlines will introduce more foreign pilots in the future, airline insiders showed. And taking flights performed by foreign pilots will soon be a normalcy afterwards.
