Pilot To Chef
 

You know Hong Kong is effed up for pilots,when an Aussie pilot comes back to chase his dream of becoming a chef on Masterchef instead! :E

that's hilarious.
I thought you were blowing smoke up our asses but a quick search revealed the truth! :ok:

Why not? Cooking would be more interesting than airline flying, it may be more financially rewarding if he is any good at it and it would provide a great lifestyle at that country pub.

@Mill Worker,depends from person to person really.What is of interest to someone is high subjective and nowhere near objective.

Fu*k it, good on him.

Everyone bitches on this forum about wanting to leave, here's someone doing it because of something they really want to do. How many of us put on hold our dreams of being an adult movie producer or farmer etc etc and then woke up one morning in Hong Kong aged 50.

One life, live it.

Good on you BC. Gutsy move!

Google is failing me in my searches on this. Name or a link?

Well I think it's great to have the courage of your convictions and go for what you want.
Top guy too, was always a great guy to fly with.

Yep, a great guy. Great enough to enter into training during the 'please don't' period i.e. about a month before the training ban.

What he's doing on MasterChef is fantastic, without question. What he did when he entered training was not, however, fantastic!

Roster says he's got indefinite leave, don't think he's resigned.

So Carter gets to hang out with Nigella next week. You get to…..
Good luck to him.

Unpaid leave to what?
What unpaid leave?

Some might consider that comment bad form Johnny.
Perhaps worth revisiting?

I'd like to average 36-48hrs off in my layovers.........

+1, nice bloke so can only wish him all of the best

Guys,Brett(the pilot guy)'s doing really well in the competition.Really happy for him!

I've only seen the show once or twice when I've been home and he comes across as a lovely guy, always smiling. Hope he does well throughout the show
