Regarding job security, probably the best there is in the current market, just as long as you don't stuff up the take off.......or the landing........or the taxi........ of course, getting pissed is a no no.....and shagging a pissed hostie will also see you booted out.......or a sober one for that matter.........
Shows how times have changed. Thirty years ago, all of the above was mandatory if you were to be promoted to CP!
