Just been laid off by a small regional airline. But even that (airline) is questionable.
16 yrs Ops, Crewing, Load control experience. Prefer to stay in Manchester area
Anyone got any leads as to where i go from here. Thinking of doing Dispatchers license in US.

Would mind if I asked which operator in MAN area?

When i joined, it was Air Kilroe. Eastern Airways took it over approx 15 months ago.
Went down the drain soon after.

Sorry to hear the news, I used to deal with AKL - used to borrow G-IJYS every now and then..

Have you tried JMC ?

Yes i've spoken with Damien Ives & Jeremy Proberts but no vacancies at the moment.
Heard a rumour that they were setting up a dispatch dept. Any truth in it?
GIJYS was a bit of a dog. Just had an E check so should be an improved unit. The rest except GOAKJ are also dogs. Both YS & KJ are ex AKL machines. The others are ex Air Botnia.

Heard jobs avail at Heavylift, quite an easy life but be prepared to take a loan to supplement the salary.

Thanks for your help guys.
Am starting with Globeground MAN on 12JUN00, in Flight Dispatch. A major cut in salary but beggars can't be choosers & anyway it's time for some job stability.
