John BeeversGUEST
Had a few interviews that year with like Aer Lingus, British Airways, British Airways CityFlyer, and then Jet2 as well.
John BeeversGUEST
So then Jet2 offered me the 757, uh, based here in Manchester.
John BeeversGUEST
So I left Flybe at the very end of 2015 and joined Jet2.
RobHOST
Any pilot I've spoken to who's flown the 757, they say it is, one, it's like a rocket ship, and they just say it's like a performance machine.
John BeeversGUEST
But talking to some of the sort of the, the sort of the, the sort of the older pilots and, and of Flybe, they were saying to me like, "Look, go and get yourself a Jet type rating," and things like that.
John BeeversGUEST
"It's better for your career," and things like that, and go more sort of experience a bit more kind of.
RobHOST
So when you joined Jet2, you were based out of Manchester, right?
John BeeversGUEST
Yes.

Neville BoundsHOST
Yes.
Neville BoundsHOST
It's on the, uh, theguardian.com, and it says that Manchester, London Stansted, and East Midlands airports have been hit by a cyber attack in which hackers accessed the data of about 8.7 million customers.
Neville BoundsHOST
The incident involved data relating to car park, lounge, and fast track bookings, and in-airport Wi-Fi sign-ups.
Neville BoundsHOST
And the hackers obtained email addresses, phone numbers, vehicle registration numbers, and postcodes, said Manchester Airport Groups, which operate the three hubs.
Neville BoundsHOST
The company said that at no point has passenger safety or aviation security been compromised during the incident, and operations at the airport were unaffected.
Neville BoundsHOST
The hacked system did not hold customers' bank or payment details.
Neville BoundsHOST
Uh, in an email to customers, London Stansted said, "We would urge you to be particularly cautious of unexpected emails, calls, or text messages claiming to be from us.
Neville BoundsHOST
We will never contact you unexpectedly to ask for p- for payment or banking information, and we apologize for any inconvenience or concern this may cause." Well, the cyber attack hit the airports during the peak summer travel season, and many families were flying back into the UK this week before the start of the new school year.
Chris JacksonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I've spoken to a, a fair few people today and just talked about how excited I am about the fact that these new trains will be visiting lots of the great towns and cities of the north, west to east.
Chris JacksonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Indicatively, the train services will be Liverpool through to Scarborough, uh, Manchester Airport through to Saltburn, and Manchester through to Hull.
Chris JacksonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And of course, that takes advantage of the 25,000, um, volt overhead power lines, but also allows us to operate in battery mode, where we currently don't have those overhead wires in place.
Richard BowkerHOST
The trains are going to be built at Alstom's Litchurch Lane site in Derby.
Matt IrelandHOST
Yeah.
Andrew TravisGUEST
And I got back, Monday, just gone, uh, 9:00 in the morning, Manchester Airport.
Andrew TravisGUEST
Wife picked me up, blah, blah.
Andrew TravisGUEST
And I came back to the warehouse, and my truck's parked outside the warehouse.
Heidi AlexanderGUEST
And so these new trains that are going to be rolled out on the Trans-Pennine express routes are really important.
Heidi AlexanderGUEST
It's why when we announced our plans for Northern Powerhouse Rail at the beginning of this year, which will include a brand new railway line between Liverpool and Manchester via Manchester Airport, I think that was received positively by people in the north of England.
Heidi AlexanderGUEST
We've got to drive economic growth and maximise that potential that exists in cities, the great cities of the north like Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, York, Sheffield.
Heidi AlexanderGUEST
And these trains are also going to be running over to Hull on the lines there.
