Crewing vs Flight ops Career
I'm interested in getting into the operations side of aviation. Can you guys, with the benefit of experience tell me whats truely involved in the areas of crewing and flight ops.
Can people also give me advice on whether , if i start with an airline in a crewing position, i can get involved in ops later in a career, or whether they are separate areas of the business.
Also, whats the best way to get into these areas. At the moment i am looking at building up experience in the industry, starting to work my way up the ops ladderwith an airline (if i can get in!!). Is this the only way to go about it, given a lack of experience and an unimpressive recent history in higher education?
Thanks in advance for any help.
