Good selection up here at EK. Some of the guys who spent years frustrated in the RHS at AN are now 777 ans A330/340 Training Captains. Many still arriving after taking various routes OS and a good few migrating after having a gut-full at VB, QF and J*.

Ex-AN pilots have done well post 2001, but the ones that have done best have been those able to put it behind them and adapt to new ways of doing things.

AN was full of great people and was a cushy job, but, let's face it, it was never a well run business.

I've since worked for Europes biggest Lo-Co, and now work for probably the most profitable Airline on earth. It opens your eyes to the realities of the industry some what!!

AN was a great chapter in my life, and the collapse was a tragedy, but the ride since has been, to say the least, interesting!!
