The airline business and dream to be an ANA pilot.

June 5, 2013
Hasegawa kun wanted to be a pilot from his boyhood.  His mother was a flight attendant and married an office staff  from ANA. He grew up in his mother's hometown of Komaki where used to be Nagoya International Airport. He tired to be a pilot twice and failed but did not give up. He is now a pilot student of Air pilot College in Miyazaki.
The airline business is not like that  in 1960's or 70's when it was the brightest job if you had a good command of English.  This was very limited in Japan where English was not well taught after the war. So the graduates of  St. Joseph College chose the job in the airline business.  In 1958 about 40 percent of the graduates entered this business, mostly in European and American airline companies.
My cousin entered ANA when the airline was only a domestic airline for many years, but in 1970's they started to fly a charter airplane to Hong Kong or Guam. She was not a university graduate and so as many others who spent as year of school training was able to enter ANA.  ANA has a system to be on board from Tokyo or Osaka.  She was Osaka base, so lived in Ikeda city.  Her roommate, Yamaguchi san will be later the first manager and director of all the flight attendants of ANA. My cousin, like many other flight attendants, met a well to do young businessman from Kyoto and got married and later her son went to America and returned after college and successfully became an ANA pilot. This type of a success story among flight attendants and their income of over 10,000,000 yen at the age of 29 in 1990's also attracted many cabin attendant candidates.
JAL before they got bankrupted send the black limousine hired taxis to pick up not only  pilots but also cabin attendants. No wonder they were very attractive jobs for girls, but  caused the bankruptcy of JAL.

I think many of the students would like to work in an airline company.
I want you to discuss merits and demerits of working in an airline company or a tourist company.
