Do you blame me?
I do give 100% to whoever I work for. Even if i need a sex change after it.
Well I have heard that you, and that is a collective for the UK Defence Force are struggling, like ours to recruit suitable people.
I enjoy my job now albeit a little over worked and I loved my time in the military. I would not be where I am today with out serving Queen and country!
So why not take that view, if you guys are short and I am willing.

What would be the average time for one of your guys to jump ship to the corporate world after their time on the Global?? I'm looking at going back to the military, the Oz Army will have me back as a Helo driver with over 3000hrs, but I've done my time beating the air into submission. The RAAF would have me a s a Tanker driver on the A330, so I've been told by someone senior but it doesn't interest me.
The Global is a fine piece of machinery and I enjoy flying it. In a completely different role it would even be better.
Maybe your right I need to question my motivation.

If its win/win for both parties why not? You get an experienced global driver, I get 3 yrs in a different part of the world with my family.

enough ranting.
