Obviously me too.
Whats wrong with it? That you cant apply as you dont have clearance? Its in the middle east? It is a bloody big part of the world you know, it could be in quite a few countries...
OK, its short on detail but Ive seen worse! |

It's a bit vague, but what else is wrong with it?

| It does seem a bit odd as the Pan Am International Flight Academy is, as the name suggests, US based. It is a very wealthy company and it would seem most unlikley that they would stick a crappy one sentence typo ad on Dave's. |

Gotta love the superb website for such a humongously wealthy corporate multinational based on the US

I (mis)interpreted it, as I'm sure Jetgirly did, as perhaps having some satirical connection to September 11th.
Location: al-Qaeda land.
Requirements: Aviation experience & secret level clearance.
Contact: The Welsh crooner Tom Jones?
This ad is either a spoof or just coincidental and therefore not thought about. My money is on the former.

| The panacademy website that PaulH linked is most probably a fake. If a fraudster or joker or whatever sets up a false company with a "website", they make an "underconstruction" cheapo homepage(saves designing a whole site) so that when anyone tries to check out the site they don't get suspicious (if they are easily taken in that is). The site will never be constructed. However, a feeble attempt (like this one) will only fool the foolish. |
