Fair enough!

For everyone. The 50 will be split into two groups of 25. The subjects covered will be as follows.

Specifically, ATC, ATPL/CPL, Wannabes, Military, CV's.

There will also be one or two small chats at the end of the seminars. I will be doing a short one on airlines - "then now and the future".

It all kicks off at 10 a.m. there will be two sessions in the morning and two in the afternoon, in between each session will be a coffee break and, of course, a break for lunch.

So. 1000-1230 - LUNCH - 1345 - 1545 and 1545 to 1645.

Please arrive by 0930, but the check-in desk will be open at 0830 with coffee available.

Lecturers include: Danny, Rob Lloyd, Hamrah, WWW, Redsnail, CrashDive, PPRune Radar, StopStart, Scroggs, Sick Squid and IFR.

Have a good time, you have the best people around to help you.

IFR

Yeah G-SXTY, it was the only way to shut me up and keep me out of the bar for a few hours.

Ah, I can see it now. Callsign Charlie, with a PhD in astrophysics. You do not salute her, but you’d better listen to her because the Government listens to her about your proficiency . . .

What’s your subject by the way? (just so I can read up & not get all embarrassed when I’m singled out).

Hello there, I am one of the lucky 50 and will come regardless. I have one question though, is this more geared to people considering wether to join the fray or those of us with mud up to our eyeballs looking for that first job?

All are welcome Calypso. Last time around, it ranged from people who had never even had a trial flight to 4000+hr pilots.

The variety helps get the debate going, and its useful for low or zero hour wannabes to hear what people further down the line are thinking.

Besides which, it would be extremely boring if everyone was the same - you certainly wouldn't want to be surrounded by 50 G-SXTYs!

Calypso,
the seminar is aimed at anyone with a genuine desire to become a professional pilot, whether civil or military. Of necessity, it must cover subjects which may not be strictly relevent to some attendees, but will apply to others. We hope that, nevertheless, all the lectures (more like discussions) will be interesting and useful to the majority of you. And we get to continue in the bar afterwards (18 and over only.....!).
IFR, I'm sorry, but you're not getting Reddo-baiting all to yourself. I wanna go!

Ok scroggs, we are six or seven down - they have dropped out for one reason or another. So you can sit in on HER lecture. She'll kill me now

Well just returned from a fun filled day at Horley and decided to tell all you folks that couldnt make it....you lost out...try and book early next time !

Its was great to meet with so many like minded people and nice to put a face to all of the names that appear on the site

Thank you to all thoses that made today as fun and as informative as it was. And also to those of you that work almost unseen in the background to keep pprune running.

I'm really sorry that I had to bail out early this evening (I wont be next time) and wish you all the best for xmas + 2002.

PS - It'll be jeans and a rugby shirt next time....but thanks to the American gent that gave me a tip after I held the door open for him - will work for beer ! ! !

See you on the M23 / M25

I'm just back from what has been a great day. Nice to meet the mods and fellow ppruners. It's just a shame I couldn't stay for the bash. Maybe next time? You betcha! My thanks to the mods.
