Description

As a Brittish citizen, I first applied with TWA back in 1974.  I wanted a ground position, but I never dreamed that I would be a flight attendant!! SO I thought, why not?   I flew to Kansas City, MO for my initial interview, and had my final interview at the Breech Academy in  Overland Park, KS.   It was a grueling six months before I was finaly hired with TWA.  When I got the news of being accepted into the next class,not only was my training to begin, but my wonderful 23 year career with a wonderful airline was to take off.   I met so many wonderful people in the class and really had good training with TWA.

My first assginment was a flight from JFK to LHR (TW#100) and then, back to JFK two days later. I flew that route a lot from1974-1994.
When I first started flying, I flew in the majestic B-707-100 series a/c that was awsome!!  I later went to the L-1011 and really fell in love with
that aircraft.   I met so many wonderful people while flying, and lost track with everyone I flew with.  SO if any of you former f/a's out
there remember flying with an English gent,( I went by the name of Micky) I want to hear from you!! :)  I have missed TWA and have now retired from flying altogether.

TWA was truely my airline, and I was proud to work for them!! :)
