If you're considering civil flying, best you understand the significance of their terminology!

Obviously airlines are commercial enterprises, not charities. So if the choice is between an AT pilot with thousands of hours of worldwide route flying and a pilot who hasn't been above 100ft aal for years, the choice is pretty obvious....at the moment.

But the number of ATPL-qualified RAF pilots leaving for civil flying is, in airline terms, quite small. Any QSP will be a pretty good prospect for a civil employer, but right now the airlines can still afford to be choosy.

By the way, Virgin Atlantic isn't the airline it once was.....
