Wow, thanks for all the support everyone! To answer some questions, I have yet to be certified by the FAA, and that will happen beginning this Sunday/Monday - my first flight will be IAD-BDL-IAD (that's Dulles - Hartford - Dulles for those who may not know city codes).
As for peanuts (I can't resist this): we don't have 'em. We DO, however, have sunchips, pretzels, fruit & oatmeal bars, and vanilla cookies for your refreshment. Not to mention something that most other (domestic) airlines don't offer: hot towels and mints prior to landing - on ALL flights. Something to think about the next time you're sitting on (insert other airline here), wondering why the flight attendant threw your peanuts at you.
As for the pictures, I have to upload them to my computer, but if you're hoping I'm a leggy blonde with a toothy grin, I'm afraid you're mistaken; I'm very much male - though I do grin a lot. However, I was the *token* guy in my training class, and the ladies with whom I trained were all wonderful people (not to mention very easy on the eyes), and I'm sure that some of you will have the opportunity to meet them at some point.
Again, thanks for the support, and I look forward to serving you in the future! Cheers!
I don't know all of the airport codes, and I don't know all off the airline ones either. I don't know what the heck the name of the airline is you are going to work for! :-) HUH????
Congrats however, I am sure you are going to LOVE your job!
Bradley is in Windsor locks, CT. It is closer to Springfield, MA than to Hartford. I grew up in the flight path when the wind was from the south.
