3123 at the last seniority list publication.

With retirements during the year now probably just under 3000 as mentioned

2998 at the last count.

Airbrake 8th December 2004 16:23

For those long haul swimmers in the pool, BA have pulled non type rated people out for a 777 cse starting early March.

KYT 8th December 2004 19:10

I can concur with Airbrake, an ex-military mate was informed 1 week after his sim that he had 777s early Mar.

For Shaka Zulu, apparently you get a sim brief with power settings etc the day before your sim - crew coop the key.

an ex-military mate was informed
Excellent. More of the right stuff.

Rest easy in the knowledge that he will be joining the seniority list in his rightful place - the bottom.:D

Carnage Matey! 9th December 2004 16:35

And wearing two stripes.

Lord_Flashhart 9th December 2004 17:17


And wearing two stripes.
I was led to believe that this particular insult had been addressed. Three stripes for those with superior experience?

LF

Carnage Matey! 9th December 2004 17:26

Yes and two stripes for people who've only flown mil!:p

Hot Wings 9th December 2004 18:42

But you are allowed to wear your medals;)

Lord_Flashhart 9th December 2004 18:50

Are you mocking those who have been decorated for serving Queen and Country,risking life and limb in hostile territory?

This while you lie in a comfortable bed at night?

Free because of the likes of me, and my sort, that went before.

Disgrace.

LF

obviously you have not been in the military, your so called banter on here is not queens flying club.

However I do like the humour, even if you are a civvy :O

Angostura 9th December 2004 21:28

Presumably Hot Wings you're also allowed to wear the chips on your shoulders.

Da Dog 10th December 2004 08:06

Angostura 10th December 2004 10:58

normal_nigel 10th December 2004 12:11

Angostura 10th December 2004 18:12
