@TSBA92 Im 17 and i just started and they say they will be a hiring boom very soon. So id say chances are good :)

Those side-stick controls don't help at all.

@Bowl3500 I've heard that too, they say the A330 is much simpler then many birds. Just out of curiousity, i'm an aspiring pilot, but i'm 19 now with zero flying experience. I'm getting worried my chances of ever becoming a pilot are quickly evaporating. Do you think it is worth the chance in these tough economic times to pursue a career in piloting?

@Bowl3500 really?!?! ur an A330 pilot? For what airline?

[Bowl3500]

@oneofthemdeals I'm an A330 pilot and I say otherwise, it's one of the easiest to fly a/c.

@oneofthemdeals It's windy, and most aircrafts land hard in a weather like this. It also depends on the pilot skills , not by the type of aircraft.

Not bad landing!! Plane and i like to be on it next 4 or 5 months for Narita Airport and i hope that i will have lots of luck! 5 Stars!
