Don't worry , there’s a seemingly endless group of old boys who retired in 1985 , coming on here to tell us about how it was on VC10s in 1970.
The job market is pretty good - my fear if I did it now is that there are so few airlines as opposed to 30 years ago , that if you screw up a couple of selections , you may have to think tangentially for the next set .
