EGBKFLYER.

Have you bought that caravan yet.

The whole event was brilliant for me as I met 4 Pilot managers who I have been e-mailing for the last 2 years but had never had the chance to meet until Saturday. They all remembered me very well from my e-mails and letters and I had a very good chat with each of them.

Its all about networking and getting yourself known.

The man from BMI Baby ( wont mention his name again ) knew exactly who I was even though it has been 6 months since I last e-mailed him. Now that he has met me in the flesh, I feel my future e-mails and letters may be kept higher up the pile so to speak. I will e-mail him again this week thanking him for his time at the event etc etc etc.

At least me and EGBKFLYER had breakfast with a pilot manager from a large turboprop outfit. And it was him that came and sat with us and not us that went and sat with him.

Networking, networking and networking. That's what its all about in this game.

Got a nice e-mail today for a possible future sim check out of the event anyway.

£55, was it worth it. Most definitely.
