Peter Skellan :- I enjoyed your post, full of ironic humour and more than a dash of truth I'd say.
Maxalt :- Concur with your view, think it's a good time to be retiring from BA right now.
ps. Suggs, before you accuse me of having a rejection letter, I haven't. At the age I left the military I wasn't going to see a L/H command so there was no point in applying. As SS says, different people have different ambitions and I was lucky to fly some good kit all over the world. It probably IS fair to say that BA is not the great company it once was and has difficult times ahead if it is to survive........I hope it does.
