Un-be-lievable.

You're right mate, Jet2 are appaling - they actually tow their 73 and 75s into the air rather like you may have seen with gliders. Us pilots then strap giant planks of wood to our arms and flap furiously out of the cockpit windows in a desperate bid to stay in the sky long enough. Not that any of that matters, of course - because within ten minutes of take-off the bloody things have nasty habit of breaking up into a million pieces.

And don't bother the cabin crew either. They hate the company so much most of them are too busy sawing holes in the fuselage. And us up top aren't much kop. On my last sector I was so effed off with life I shot myself in the head.

Enjoy your flight
