WPP,

In RAF Bomber Command in the Second World War, newly trained bomber pilots would join an experienced pilot and crew for a couple of 'trips' before being put in command of their own aircraft. The new pilot was referred to as the 'second dickie'; you appear to have brought a rather different connotation to that expression in your post (no pun intended...) below. Congratulations in regard to graduating to line training. Remember that you're not allowed to stop and circle in thermals in your new job.

MP.

G'day All,

All is going well here in Sydney. I just passed my Command SAAB 340 endorsement yesterday, and have my first flight in the real thing tomorrow (after being employed with REX for 3 months to the day). Can't wait, just hope the passengers don't see my 'you know what, at full attention after the first sector'!!!


Hope you've been having a good season.
Safe Circles,
