Hate to be a party pooper.. But I am 100% with Bananas...
Go get yourself a decent career elsewhere and enjoy flying on week-ends!
I will definitely not pursue my kids to get to the pointy end as a career...
Sad but true.

MHN, you have received a wide range of advice from members of this forum _ all of whom, I am sure are trying to help. At your age you still have choices. Make them wisely my friend.

MHN When I first read your post about turning up in the Gulf with your qualifications I just knew you were doomed to fail but refrained from saying so at the time as did not want to be a party pooper.
Take heed of what Bananas says ( He was once the unofficial recruiting Sergeant for SQ Cargo for the first few years) but coming from Brunei one cannot blame him for that.
BB seems to be somewhat disenchanted with EK from what I can tell , but those of us who have been in Aviation a long time have seen the decline in T & C's over the years hence his good advice now.

MHN, Some people will try to offer you genuinely helpful advice but there will always be one or two that try to stir the pot rather than offer anything constructive. Your situation and mine are very different because of age and experience. I am happy enough in my fur lined rut but could not, in all honesty, recommend commercial aviation as a career to anyone considering it from an entry level position today. Good luck with whatever you decide.
