Listen to Scroggs guys, he knows what he is talking about. Stop trying to write a CV containing what you think is important and start putting in what is important to the airline recruiter. They need to see who you are, how to contact you, your qualifications for the job, a bit of work history (especially relevant aviation related jobs), a bit of education (the longer ago it was the less relevant) and a little bit for you to chat about at interview that makes you sound interesting (like some interesting or worthwhile hobbies and interests) if you are a low houred applicant with little life/ job experience. That's it. And what's more it is easy to get it onto one page, if you can't then you are waffling and they won't read it anyway.
