So, yea, that's all great stuff; any good, factual information on AJX/ANA/NCA would be great too. These places must breed cryptic advice. I made my way to the hangout, the Barge Inn, last time I was in NRT and asked an NCA guy about getting hired there and he kept telling me 5000 hours and a twelve inch %@$#. Funny guy, bought a few rounds, but no further to the facts was I.
Actually, the contracting agencies web site is excellent, and pay and benifits on it is in line with what the lads said. They were all pretty happy with the contract; the ANA group and the NCA side both.
