So I just got a letter from my employer.
 
I got a letter from one of the suits at the Gatwick hub in London today.

"You're service on the 737-400 is no longer required because we have decided that it would be in our best interest, including yours, that you be moved onto the BA-A380 program."

Guys, this is like the greatest news ever.

Basically, British Airways bought twelve Airbus A380's this year and I've been chosen to move onto one of the most gangster planes ever made!



BA only owns twelve so far. That means only twenty four pilots in the whole country would be lucky enough to move on to them. Twelve first officers and twelve Captains. So really, my odds of getting this were twelve to however many fully qualified First Officers BA has. Infuckingcredible.



They come into service in Autumn 2010. Woot woot!

So does this mean you can still drink on the job orrrr.....?

Dogg, it means I can put spinning rims and suicide doors on that bitch and do a drive-by from Botswana to Compton.

when I read your posts, your voice in my head has a Prince Charles-esque accent, which in turn makes you funnier.

Also, MM has a turn of the century chimney sweeper accent.

What's the best part about flying a plane? To me, it would be using that bad ass intercom system to tell people what's up.

"Now yall be quiet back there, I needa mash on some of these buttons to land this rig. Aight?"

MattJack Apr 30th, 2008 12:08 PM

actually I take that back, MM has the voice of the Geico Gecko

MetalMilitia Apr 30th, 2008 02:27 PM

Ha! That's the London accent. Mine is closer too... uhh... have you seen the English Office? Well Gareth Keenan is supposed to be from the city in which I work (Bristol) so it's kind of close to that. Except his is quite a thick accent and mine isn't.

Also see: The Wurzels.

ADDED: Btw, good news T-rex. Don't crash it!

That's ridiculous. Congrats though! You need to have a Bass-off with the Soul Plane in 2010 though.

MLE Apr 30th, 2008 04:47 PM

I kind of think of the chimney sweep accent from Mary Poppins when I read a MM post.

No one is worried that T-Rex flies commercial airplanes for a living?
