Greetings from Manchester

Post by FlyingColours » Thu Feb 01, 2018 8:48 am

Hi Folks,

I'm Phil, from Manchester and former cabin crew who has previously been based at BRS, MAN and LGW. I worked on 737-400/800, 757-200, 767-200/300 and Airbus A320 and had been trained on 737-300/900ER and 747-200/300 but never operated them.

My interest in aviation was rebooted in late 2015 when my fiancee told me to psych myself up for going on a plane as we were to go on holiday and I hadn't stepped foot on a plane since 2008 when the previously mentioned career collapsed. Since then I've started a new youtube channel to show my videos which is a spin off from my existing railway channel. I am currently working on writing a book about my time in the air and am always happy to answer questions about the cabin crew role and airline ops.

I am a volunteer at a preservation railway where I am a diesel locomotive fitter and secondman/driver so feel free to ask any railway questions too.

Cheerio,

Phil
