I am sure this has been discussed, but what is the latest news at Virgin?
Are people happy there? Growth? New cities? Or should I not bother applying at all? Thanks in advance.

I am not a Virgin fan. They have hired some managers with less than stellar reputations and word is on the other boards that the same people are up to the same old tricks. Without a union, a pilot there might be playing career roulette.

But if you like the base and are not risk adverse, might be fun for a while.

So who was the lucky pilot who got to fly the Victoria's Secret models to LA?

Maybe...but word is that all the models were speechless. They were in shock from not being asked to leave an airplane due to "provocative dress"

Thats ok look at what the skank is doing now. Maybe Southwest was dead on about her. Heck the folks on the SW flight already had that show live. Branson can have that. Besides she is atleast a two bagger.

Yea...I think you may be right about that! On a more serious note, thanks to the SWA crews for the numerous rides to/from work, you guys have been great.
