Totally agree with B/B/B...... just keeping the IR and Medical valid won't cut alot of ice when things pick up. I couldn't afford to hire even a 152 having some nice loan repayments to make etc so I know what it's like. Managed to get a Cabin Crew job with a major UK outfit and shortly after volunteered with a company down the road doing some part time instructing with the public on 737 and 747 full motion sims.(red letter day type stuff). No pay initially but a nice way to spend my days off from Cabin Crew and valuable full flight jet sim experience. Then after a month or so managed to get taken on full time and thats me for now.

Money
Experience
Fun
