"all you guys do is sit in a nice warm
office and drink coffee----I was flying
when you were still in knee pants ect ect"

crews. And your correct as far as the

be a JAA ticket.. The reason I quoted was
actually offered by a group of European
Ops bods about two years ago, when I tdy'd

season (Which was probably the best thing
that ever happened, it appears few if any
US based dispatchers understand the ways
and vaguries of Eurocontrol , and I got a
good basic grounding in it for that summer.) Finally I fully agree that some
sort of standarization would be a fantastic
thing, not just within Europe but worldwide.
My present beef at the moment is watching
the state of training (in US DX schools)
slowly diminish to the point is that they
are (with certain exceptions) becoming
ticket mills.......I have had new tickets
show up here who cannot even read a Jepp
