which position should I take?
rep, I was a 152 SO like yourself mate 
I held out till 2500 hours and got a right seat slot on the 210 
It was worth the wait mate 
Pure brilliance 210, brings back a lot of great memories and it's bloody good to have a laugh!

There are several asian and african airlines that have questionnaires to fill out before you board their aircraft. One of the questions is "how many air disaster movies have you watched in the last 12 months?". If your answer is more than two than you are automatically selected as deputy SO for their flight. That means could be up to 386 SO's on a 744.
I hope this satisfies your query
(do i get a lollypop for that one?) Please...Please

hey guys thanks very much for the replies... well most of them,.. some of u i have the feeling that u may be making fun of me but, for those of u that r willing to take this serious here r a few answers to your questions... the position of the FO in an airvan is a very serious one, i am in charge of the landing lights and fuel pumps...but only in exceptional circumstances. i am unfortunately unable to wear any bars at the moment but once the chief engineer let me wear his shirt because my chief pilot got stains all over my shirt.
PS i log all of these hours as dual but i keep a seperate log as co-pilot (coz the airlines love multi-crew ops)... i also know how the airlines love over head panels and control columns that come out of the floor.
PSS To SMS 777 no i dont wear kevlar underpants but i do wear a fire retardant flight suite and my captain does play the dangerzone theme song whilst we walk out onto the apron and during take-off and landing. I also enjoy volleyball games and our unique handshake which we have spent hours perfecting. He has also told me I can be his wingman any time which to me means that i am making progress... God I love this industry, I love the smell of avgas in the morning!

............hey I was beginning to wonder where 'wonderboy' (210oneday) had got to
Anyway was worth a laugh or two. reading these posts shows that afterall the hassles we experience in aviation (not you '210' you have the best job) we all still have a SOH
CW
p.s......"210oneday" it's 2 stoke son 2 stroke that smells nothing like it in the morning, just ask DK, besides the 'van' probably runs on it anyway
And finally in another famous saying fom DK re you want a cmd on a 'van'.............tell him he's dreamin'!
