UK jobs market and where and how to find that first job?

Hey Guys and Gals hope you can help.
About 5 months ago (after getting the 'Dear John' letter from BA after the final interview) I pulled off the internet a comprehensive list of Airline addresses and their Cheif Pilots names, so that I could write to them directly about sponsorship.

Suprise suprise I've now lost this list and I really need it! Does anyone have it (it had about 50 addresses on it) or does anyone know where I can get it because I've forgotten?

Airline contact/address details

Hi guys&gals.

Hoping that someone out there can help me.Does anyone have or know where i can get a current address list of airlines and air taxi operators.Have been applying for a few jobs but a lot of my applications get returned(firm changed address or went out of business!!)Tried using the net and all the usual avenues unsucessfully.Difficult enough to get a job at the best of times but helps a bit if your CV and accompanying posterior licking letter actually arrives where it should.Thanks a lot in advance guys if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Good luck to you all
Alpha

Two sources for the list,

1 Ring the Library at the CAA. they will provide the list for the price of a photocopy and stamp.

2 www.flightinternational.com have a decent directory.

any jobs

JAR ME/ IR CPL 350 HRS I NEED A JOB FLYING PLEASE. ANY IDEAS? AIRLINES ONLY NEED APPLY. Seeking FO postion £35-45000 a year, pleasant roster, respectable company with no mingers in the cabin!! Any offers? If you don't have credentials please DON'T SEND YOUR C.V

Thanks BA and Virgin for your application you will be put on file.
Ryan Air, Easyjet you have been rejected not sure of the quality, please wait until you have some more experience. Those guys aren't long off the shovel at Ryan Air and Easyjet looks alot like Tescos. Monarch you are employing underaged children who can't hold their dummies let alone an NDB.
Please keep them coming.

Is it just me or are the an incredible amount of people on here that have had a sense of humour bypass?

Wrong attitude?
Bad use of English?

Lighten up chaps!

pp it's a requirement on this forum to be deadly serious and not show any humour whatsoever.
I mean for god's sake what is the point in laughing?!!
Only when we get a job shall we attempt something that resembles fun, but then of course we'll be posting on other forums where we can also make speling mystakes
