Well, interesting as it was, episode one didn't do much for GA. What GA centred content it had was more about crashing than flying. I do hope we get some more posotive coverage in future episodes.

Colin , how are you mate .
If the TV programme is anything like the trailer then I might just be doing my hair whilst it's on. The 1min. 13secs that I endured looked a bit 'same old,,same old'.

Couldn't possibly tell you which airline I work for , but the bearded old hippie who runs it has never been averse to the odd bit of publicity and every time TV cameras appear airside all these strange faces you don't recognise suddenly appear out of the woodwork. Nothing beats the combination of TV cameras and aeroplanes when it comes to massaging frail ego's.

Funny though,,,,,,when you're out changing a 747 wheel at 0530hrs in the dark , or up on a lifter replacing a nav. light in the p*ssing rain,,,,you never see 'em then. :lol:
