Hand Solo...
Hate to ruin your whole Ideal on crew differences ,,,,but,,,
I'm actually looking at going the Pilot to FA role for a year in order to get $$$$ and await a new opportunity that's in store for me regarding Pilot work .
I have all the ratings and have not just "collected them",what I do have though is an unbiased understanding for the whole Airline Operation,suppose you could call me a Pilot with Personality perhaps????
I just happen to be personable and enjoy anything to do with airline work.
Beautiy is , Im adaptable and don't just have the Pilot only attitude.
To all in question of the original post I suppose so long as you don't run around like a "screaming queen" and be quite personable and enjoy people ,then you should be OK.
If I was doing the recruiting I'd look favourably at a candidate thats a "known quantity"
Establish yourself with a good name and you may find it goes a long way.
Good Luck Give it a GO!!!!!
