What Job were you doing before your first Flying job.

Was a Scaffolder for 5 years, just finished my ATPL now waiting to start Cpl/IR then i will try and get a aviation related job when I finish.

In training via modular route now.

Finished Alevels and joined the army as a trainee aircraft engineer but left after 9 months to start a trainee job on light single and twin piston and turbine engine aircraft at Biggin Hill. They went bust last summer so did my ppl in California. Came home and got a bar job, left that at the beginning of the year to start as cabin crew.

Seems quite boring compared to some peoples previous jobs....

Currently doing my ATPLs modular. I drive supertankers around the world for 6 months a year to pay for the flying.

Immediately before training I was a Council Tax/NNDR Inspector. Before that I was a Scuba Instructor in Thailand (2 years) and Antigua W.I. (15 months) after that.

Don't ask.

Glad to be doing what I do now though. Hours are worse, less beer, less 'life' but wouldn't swap it.
