Hello fellow wannabes, I applied at the last minute to FTE and received an invite the following day. I have not booked yet as both available dates are tricky, but will sort something out and definitely attend assessment.

However..while it is my dream to be flying for a living, and from the sorts of questions and requirements in the application, BA seem to be quite well aligned with my own values, something about the nature of the job does concern me.

We all know that, under normal circumstances, computers can do our prospective job better than us. Indeed, for most of the time computers will be flying the plane and we will be monitoring things. Now this does not sound very interesting, and yet it is something that I am extremely keen on doing.

Anyone else experience this type of cognitive dissonance..or have any thoughts about it?
