Unfortunately, I will not be going to Switzerland.

A few days ago I received an email from SAT informing me of the unfortunate news that they will no longer be able to offer me a position due to the economic downturn. They have seen a decrease in business and can not justify the investment of my JAA conversions.

Although this is extremely depressing news and the exact opposite of what I was hoping for, it comes as no surprise. Given the state of the world economy and its specific strains on the aviation industry, I would have been surprised if they didn't make this call.

I'm getting use to this dissapointment associated with aviation, unfortunately.

So continues the job hunt.
