Barden thank you for your very constructive and useful views.
Its very true at 23 i have a great deal to learn and recognise this. Compared to a lot of people on this forum i would be classed as inexperienced, i cant help this. I would be a very foolish person indeed to not take advice from people i look up to on a daily basis.
With regard to ReallyAnnoyed comments about my views changing in 10 years time, im absolutely sure they will and i welcome it. The "beauty" of youth should hopefully hold up for a few more years at least
With regards to maturity, would be a shame to judge me based on two postings. However im the one who put my hand up to be counted, so will just have to cope with the backlash.
Its a real shame the industries going this way, especially for my "era" who are hoping to see this job till 65
. Im not some masochist who takes great pleasure in seeing my career go down the sh*tter, its just that i can see both sides of the coin from a beancounters perspective. Aircraft are safer than ever, more reliable than ever and easier to operate than ever.
Thank you for your comments, i will take my leave now before im torn apart anymore
