Re my post 85.Heart & mindfelt apologies to our worthy Mods. My post was printed elsewhere.Cripes, only retired days ago & I am rapidly declining into a gibbering wreck. Keep up the great work Mods and..SOREEE.......... !
Oh and on thread, "So You Want To Be a Pilot?"; Please do not invest thousands of your own money on what has degenerated into a damn awful career. We had the best of the best in the 70's & 80's. It went downhill very rapidly after the cost-effective Accountants took the batton. My last few years were my unhappiest & I was laughed out of the Boardroom when I suggested to my employers that we start a proper, fully sponsored pilot Training programme where quality control would be back on the agenda.
Ok,must try & hit the "Submit reply" button rather than "Delete", "Reply to Mods", "Become a Mod"...........Aaaaah, bring back stick & rudder.
