RE: Online Flying Club for Real World Pilots
Well, i know you couldnt stress this enough but it sounds like a virtual airline, operates like a virtual airline and probably is, technically, a virtual airline! lol
Anyway good luck with it, its well resourced and communication looks like it will be good.. i look forward to applying in the near future!

RE: easyJet – Newcastle Routes
I don’t think its silly at all to be honest, easyJet is simply doing something very clever – finding out where potential customers want to fly to rahter than setup routes based on the current market situation and have no-one fly on them.
I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before but we are very pleased in the North East to have easyJet join us – the only true ‘low-cost’ service at the moment was the go-fly service to Stansed (although obviously, this has now been integrated into the easyNetwork).
The decreasing fares with BA are also now an added bonus but like i said, i’m sure the true ‘low-cost’ airlines will do marginally better.

RE: Flight Sim 2002
Well SOFTLAD, gill-airways-virtual dont exactly have a good reputation and if you do join them, check the small print rgarding to so-called “free items that no other VA’s offer”.
Unlike them, Air Newcastle offer a community of virtual pilots.

RE: Flight Sim 2002
yeh my system has more-aless the same specs – find it hard to get alot out of FS2002, especially when im flying online with 3 or 4 applications running at the same time!
i ditto EGNM’s comments on joining a virtual airline – its a great way to add realism to your flightsim flying.
*not a plug 😉 but…
please do visit my airline, Air Newcastle, which is incidently based at EGNT. We operate 2 CRJ200’s on flights to Aberdeen, Belfast City, Bristol and London Gatwick. We are jsut completing opening preparations but i assure you, we will be worth it!
Cheers,

RE: What could be the reason of the cockpit-window cracking?
I remember watching a documentary some time ago about Freddie Laker starting up Laker Airways in the 1990’s where a windscreen on a DC-10 cracked on it’s delivery flight from another airline – unlucky or what??
I also know a Britannia Airways purser who was once on a flight where the window in one of the rear doors cracked upon landing in Palma, must ask him what actually happened sometime.

RE: A Career in Aviation?
“These characteristics result in clinically significant impairment
in social, occupational, or other important areas of
functioning” – surely there can’t be aircrews with social and occupational impairments flying aircraft in the skies above us!?!
I don’t suppose anyone is a Doctor or knows of a Doctor which could should alittle more light on the situation, I am now quite intrigued with this “lifelong” condition that aircrews can supposedly fly with.

RE: EZY to base at Newcastle
Great news – EGNT is my local airport!
I believe the routes proposed are Geneva, Nice and Amsterdam (competing with KLMuk) along with the existing London Stansted currently flwon by go-fly.
I cant wait personally, should have a few day trips now and again seeing as the air fares will be low enough for a poor student!

P.S Benair, u near EGNT??

RE: UAL93
yeh I seen it and have to say that it nearly made me physically sick.
What happened on that aircraft was disgusting, evil and calculated to a degree beyond belief. I dont mind hearing the stories over and over, no-matter how often if it means that the travelling public and aircrews are made more aware of the incidents onboard and thereofre prevent them in future.
I am by no-means a wimp, but listening to some of the actual telephone conversations brought a tear to my eye, something which I talked about openly in my Government and Politics lesson today at college.
On a more aviation-related note now, did anyone else think that the united airlines aircraft featured in the film was an Airbus A319? A safety card was clearly shown as was a passenger sitting adjacent to the overwing exit!?!?!
