jetBlue a320 landing at Orlando Intl. (KMCO)

A bit of a crosswind, but a great landing! This flight was SYR-MCO flight time approx: 2hrs and 40mins, cruise 38000ft, flight 661, taken from seat 25F. Very friendly flight crew. If any of you are interested about becoming an airline pilot like I am, here is a little bit of information, I went to the pilots after the flight and basically asked what route or path they chose to becoming a pilot. Well, both pilots were trained in the air force while the captain still did have a little bit of civilian training, both were experienced pilots. Next question was how do you like your job, The answer was "I wouldn't trade it for the world". The next thing I asked was If I were looking to be hired now as a pilot, which airlines should I apply with first. He said look at Southwest, United, and Jetblue for now, also right now he said he would not touch delta/northwest because of all the financial mess and all the layoffs, but he said you can never tell, especially with the airline business, what will happen in the years to come. So that is a little bit of Q&A for you guys that are thinking about becoming an airline pilot. Thanks for watching!
