Thank you to all who have posted on this site. I am due to leave my present employer soon and am in the VAA and BA pools. Until I read this thread I was pretty certain that VAA was the way ahead but this debate has put many doubts in my head. It's all pretty negative reference VAA. I'm not disputing those who have already posted but are there any VAA pilots out there who are willing to stand up for their company? If not, then I suspect I have plenty of food for thought! Thanks and any further feedback would be gratefully received.
