A pilot applying for cabin crew work
Hi guys & gals,
At the end of last summer, I qualified with my commercial licence and have been sending out my CV and visiting airfields looking for flying work, but to no avail! I am about to apply on-line for work with BA as cabin crew as I feel I would love to do that type of work. I meet all their basic requirements.
I have learned about the importance of Crew Resource Management and would love to put it into practise. I feel it will make me an all-round better pilot having gained experience in the back! Also, I know it will keep me in the industry and I will eventually get the chance to move into the flight deck, hopefully.
Any comments or advice on this would be appreciated but I would also like to get in touch with any other qualified commercial pilots working as cabin crew. How common is this with any of the people you work with?
Thanks x
