Mr Sox,
taking a cabin crew job with Eastern to progress to flight crew can work, but don't expect to be in the front for some time. I can think of 3 guys already doing this some who have been with the company for 12 months. Then they see themselves jumped by outsiders going straight to flightdeck.
Aberdeen, lovely place, expensive place. Cold place. And quite grey.
Cabin turnover. I don't think that really needs an explanation.

does anyone keep a resignation tally board?
