A little shot from my early morning departure at EDDF (Frankfurt-main) on my way to Vienna with www.virtualua.org, flying for Lufthansa however, this is because with vUAL we are incorporating the Star Alliance family in to the airlines schedules biggrin.gif

Enjoy!!

Haha fair enough, but in NZ it is hard to get in to full time commercial aviation, so the Jetstar Ab-Initio course is probably my best bet tongue.gif

Ian, i remember the Lufthansa A320 well.. I had it on my Commodore Amiga 500+ was a damn tricky thing to fly, especially when 99% of the manual was in German hahahaha
