RE: Bizjets

Hi Kabir.

I’m not very familiar with all of the business jets, but I would also have to go for the BBJ. As T5 says…it looks great with the ‘futuristic’ winglets. We @ Leeds Bradford Airport are preparing for the arrival of the based Multiflight BBJ2 (coming soon-watch this space!!)

RE: Boeing 757

Ba didnt even reply to me!! Though I cant complain…I did do work experience with them! BMI were great on the other hand. I was offered a jump seat ride over to Dusseldorf…that was fantastic.

Its such a competetive career…its a case of right place at the right time…and the right skills! Now with positions down post 9/11-its even more tricky!

RE: Boeing 757

Mongu…its nice to hear of SOME airlines being cooperative and kind.

The chief pilot at Airtours was very helpful to me upon my pilot training enquiry. I recieved lots of very useful information.

Has anybody else experienced this side to the airlines?

RE: My pic of me…yes me!

RE: Airport picture of the day-Australia

Yeh…I thought some of the world tails were good. It certainly brightened BA up a bit….though Maggie Thatcher didnt really like them!

T5…I believe they’ve started re-spraying. Obviously with the current financial situation its taking longer than first thought.

RE: UK Airports ignore ban on noisy jets

Yes, thats a fair point Hand87_5. I spose there are many different scenarios where home owners have fallen victim to changes such as the ones you mentioned.

RE: Favorite weekend activity (keep it clean!)

I’m afraid not tomel. I have excessive wind (I would considor that a weapon) and am quite frightening when angry (which is not very often at all).

Fridays I go down to the local brass band and bamg the drums for a bit. Upon return home, I like to pig-out and watch t.v (discovery wings-when its not full of repeats!)

Saturday is my ‘lie in’ day, and I love it…until I get kicked out! I may venture into the great outdoors on some saturdays, this is ofcourse dependant on funds, level of laziness and the reason for which I would want to venture out of my domain!

I work sundays (quite early which is horrible), so its early 2 bed on a saturday-well I try. I work in a local hotel restaurant.

Thats basically it!! Very exciting!!

RE: A310

Yes I agree with Mongu and Keltic. Its not dependant on the a/c itself in terms of space and immediate passenger comfort. (Comfort may be jeperdised if the plane were falling to bits though!!)

I have not had the pleasure of flying on an A310 or An A300 for that matter. However it is fairly clear that in comparison to (eg-)the A320 or A330, the A310 has not been as successful.
