Thanks a lot for all of the feedback guys, its appreciated.
Any insider knowledge on BA regarding the commuting guys? I would have thought you'd need to be pretty senior to get a roster that could be commutable from the west.
Azure, thanks for the info. WJ would be ideal but I'll need to get the 1000 PIC requirement from somewhere. I'm with a bit of a legacy operator here so could be a good few years to command. Was thinking of trying for the Flybe direct entry command but its a bit of a risk going from jet to turboprop and kind of putting all the eggs in one basket. Easyjet might be a good option if they're still fast tracking people and Cathay I think as well. (She misses her family, so not something we can easily fix) I'm happy as long as there's a pub around so I quite like it here!
Thanks
