Be patient, I know it's hard

Word is, there are no new ground schools starting until the new year, when there will be a flood of them again. So be patient and enjoy the silly season. Virgin really is a great place to work :ok:

They sure do! The last year each ground school (15 or so) had at least 5 in each ground school 40+, and at least 2 50+. Your age is certainly no barrier. If you impresss, they will hire you.
