Spend two days a month flying (if I'm lucky) and far too many of the other days selling my soul to the corporate devil to pay for it.

I am a wannabe: young, but with a slightly unusual profile, I suspect. I've been eavesdropping on some of your conversations for a while now!

[Jetheat]

I was a Wannabee, Now I'm just a bee. I got ajob 2 months ago.

[ATCNightmare]

Not really a last ditch attempt at keeping this thread open, but following an interesting discussion (i use the word discussion lightly) with someone I chose not to name, I would be interested in knowing how many of the Wannabes are female.

I appreciate that aviation is a male orientated industry but having female friends interested in flying, I believed that the ratio of men to women Captains/FO was reducing.....

Is it????????????
