Fly something bigger
Hi Whirley,
Congrats on your CPL/H. Its a good time to be gaining a commercial at the moment. If you fancy the North Sea there are lots of opportunities coming up.
You will need to think about an IR to include in your CV which I know is more expense but chances are you will get snapped up by one of the major players.
Best of luck.

Have I not seen this before,emulating Thrust 1,as far as my Horse's Neck memory can remember.Was it not at an Air Day that Richard Noble was to give a demonstration of said Record Car,when Stage left A certain other Vehicle appeared!!!!OR am I mistaken that it was another impersonation of Thrust?????I also seem to remember the pseudonymn of "Eyhore",or is that another blitz of alcholic fumes??My god,it must be well over 30 years ago!!!!!!!!!There I was upside down with nothing on the clock----------------!!!!!!!!!!

Hey 212 man - if you've got it flaunt it!! FAstoat - you are quite correct. Before an excursion into a rosebed causing minor damage, the machine was sprayed up as Thrust Three. New wheels and a coat of paint left it as it still is, running beatifully. Any visitors to this area are welcome to try it out.You may also remember that I did an IR aural exam between the squadron and the Wardroom one Friday lunchtime with the IRI, David Lord running alongside. I passed, although the finer points of a Teefyyygram still eluded me and still do. 212 man - Borneo - now there are some memories. I enclose your forerunner.
