binsleepen: You don't seem to spend a lot of time 'sleepen' (or flying!) because you're on this an awfull lot! ("scratchingthesky" and "freightdoggy dog" seem similar!)
LOTSO: Glad to see your insistence on the term 'First Officer', I think 'co-pilot' is horribly outdated and its use shows someon'e 'mind set'! (By the way, it's spelt "grammar"!)
Hey guys, anyone who is ex-military and over-inflates their marvellous 'attributes' is just as much of an arsehole as those who thinks the ex-military don't know what they're doing! I've flown with a lot of people from a very big range of backgrounds and you know what, as long as they haven't had too big a head, most of them are great! Some of the 'problem cases' probably have been those who are freshly out of the military who have a big ego, similar to some of those with a fresh licence paid for by daddy, but again give a bit of time in the real world for some of the cow dung to wear off and they can be just as great!!
Now... any jobs going?
