Angel Dream on...

I dream about how one day I'll get on that flight deck, after finishing a grueling 12-18 months of training... and I was just wondering about what airline (if i had the choice of ANY) I would like to work for...

I fancy Virgin Atlantic, so who would you guys like to work for???

Not really an airline, but British Antarctic Survey.

Yep, I'd quite fancy the British Antarctic flying, or maybe a seaplane job in some pacific island.

I'm hoping for Concorde, don't mind if it's with BA or Air France....



Failing that, Virgin would be pretty good methinks

Ah..ta-be-shure Irish Stu, ..you’ll be fine with a wee Concorde job!

I hear farmer Pat O’Malley in Antrim has ‘procured’ a Concorde to spray his potato crops.

The take offs and landings should be fine as long as you go along the furrows and not across them!

Wow, everyone has got such different opinions!

Corcorde eh, I'm sure there wouldn't be much of the field left after you've sprayed it! lol.

FlyBe for me but I won't be in a position to be choosy.

Good luck to all with your dreams

I think the Dash 8 is kinda cool actually...

Funny that someone mentioned Virgin Galactic, wonder what the pilot requirements are for that. Must look it up...

(Please don't hurt me :P ) For a first job I would like to fly for an airline like Ryanair or Easyjet... Don't know why I just think it looks good, however I'm well aware there are a lot of problems behind the scenes.

In the future I would like to end up on the 767 or 777 flying routes into the states and Canada.
