I became fascinated with aviation as a young lad.
My Dad was in aviation , and used to bring home posters of BCAL DC10's and books with Eastern TriStars and Northwest Orient 747s and 757s .
I knew i wanted to be a part of it!
I went to work at Gatwick Airport in Duty Free management ,and flying weemed so glamorous and it was excitiing seeing the crews go for their flights.....
I applied to a Gatwick airline, and loved it from the start - here i am 18 years later ,and i still love it too.
The crew are great fun to be with , you get satisfaction from doing the job well , and the appreciation , and there are often 'special moments' where you go that one bit further for someone who needs you at the time.
There are alot of 'pressing' sides to it.... dreadful hours, delays , bad management etc.... but the crew normally make up for it !!!
Of course, you get to see the world too, which is the jewel in the crown
