POC,
I wouldn't wast your time conversing with the likes of brownandblack or whoever it is, the internet has brought us all wonderful new opportunities since it arrived, but unfortunately it also introduced the dreaded 'troll'.....I had to look that up a few months ago, I had no idea what it meant, but I do now!!
Please dont desert the private MON forum though, your witty posts are why I visit this website!!
I was on the 737 at the same time as you, George's bar in Berlin.............now, those were the days:]] Monarch has served us both splendidly, and will continue to do so, and in the next few months will offer many more pilots the chance to join us.
I think CaptainProp summed it up quite well in an earlier post:
'In fact it is a very individual decision depending on each persons personal situation and to a certain extent their career aspirations.... '
