If I may be so bold that is a pointless comment as, almost by definition, all companies are greedy. For sure, once they are stock-market listed it's in their DNA. It has to be or the company will not...

You've all heard of delusional optimists no doubt; this fellow is a psychopathic pessimist.

Both character traits should be ignored.

I think that should read COULD have his command by the time he is 26 years old subject to passing the command assessments and the command course.

SR71,



Not just my view. Many others share it. It was pressure from the trainers that contributed towards the re-opening of recruiting to experienced TR and non-TR pilots.

Some of us will...
