Working for a company which operates classic British aircraft definitely holds a slight advantage

Being in the ATC for 7 years threw up some other interesting ones too. Considering my age, I count myself very lucky to have some of those on the list.

Some Impressive Lists there.

However, I can only claim these:

Passenger
------------
737 (Not sure which model, and it was some kind of charter a/c for Farnbourgh 2000)

Flown while in the ATC:
----------------------------

BAe Bulldog
Grob Tutor
Vigilant Motor Glider

Flew all of these in the "Student" seat, with an instructor at my side. However, that last one was the most difficult, I went on a "gldiding scholorship" where I had to do endless circuits all day!

Unfortunately, I'm booked on Ryanair yet again (work - I'd never give them my own money!).
