Hi Davina,
I see your nearby!!

Being honest.. after pilot training I will be happy to fly with whoever.. I'm getting into it for the flying.. so i'll be happy.

Although have to say going into BA would be pretty Dandy.. if not that flying for Air Southwest based at Newquay sounds pretty awesome

Long term... either BA or VA if I had my way.
But who knows!

Take care.
SpAM

Owww, I'm sure once your in the door and settled a good living can be made from Ryanair, I just don't think they do themselves any favors sometimes from their penny pinching ways. I'd work for easyjet in a heartbeat though, mind you I wouldn't exactly say no to ryanair either!

To be honest, I wouldn't really care who I flew for, it's far to easy to say; "I'm going to fly for _________ when I qualify". At the end of the day its whoever offers you the job lol

The only airline I would have real concerns working for, would be FlyBe. I went to their open day at Glasgow Uni and wasn't very impressed. I don't fancy getting stuck on the props, although I'm sure they would be great to fly, it's just not what I want to do.

But preduk.. isn't flying..... flying?

Props are a very good way of hour building. I certainly wouldn't say no.

Spam,

You could say that about most things in life, surely driving is driving? Surely you should get the same experience driving a Ford Focus as you do driving a Range Rover, but you don't.

To me there are different levels of flying and I think jets are better than props. I'm not an airline pilot so that opinion doesn't really go for anything, I'm sure there will be many pilots that think I'm way off.

BA, Lufthansa or Virgin Atlantic would be nice eventually, but i'd be happy with nearly any airline to start with.

I hear you Eire-Planer it would be nice, I would take anything I was given, even a paper airplane. In Fantasy land I'd like Emirates or Virgin Atlantic.

I would love to work for Stevens Express Leasing Inc. I would fancy going to destinations such as Afghanistan and Cuba but also to stop for "refuel" in the former eastern Europe. I also believe that I could go the extra mile in order to make sure that the "pax" can enjoy a VVIP environment. Rumours say that all "pax" so far recommend the company to others. Yet, I don't understand why they insist not to include the VVIP pax when filing the flight plan?
