BRING BACK THE KJFK/KLGA OBSERVATION DECKS
I'm already living the dream as an aircraft dispatcher, but if I had to change, I like Manny's idea. Staff photographer...and I don't care with who, Boeing, Gulfstream, even Airbus. As long as I still get to travel and shoot, I'm happy.
Well, since Hugh Hefner's "Big Bunny" has been grounded, flying that is not an option.
So, I'd have to say my dream job would be flying a Twin-Otter in the arctic (Check out Jason Pineau's website for some incredible photos).
Running a close second would be doing air to air photography like Moose Peterson or Ed Darack.
My dream growing up was to fly the SR-71 Blackbird. I never was a fighter pilot type, just wanted to fly faster and higher than the missiles trying to kill me
Hard to choose just one, so here are a few dream jobs I'd want - all as pilot:
Captain on a BA Concorde
Like Megatop412, I'd want to fly a Blackbird. Not sure I could handle the tiny cockpit for as long as they had to sit in them on a mission, or endure the constant engine unstarts and flameouts, but hey, it's a dream.
Doing cat shots off a carrier deck in a Tomcat and then bringing it home catching a 3 wire.
And what the heck, why not fly left seat on the B747.
From the corporate world, it would be fun to fly a Beech Starship, or perhaps an Avanti.
Most of all, I would want to have Stringfellow Hawk's job flying Airwolf on top-secret missions. Doesn't get better than an armored Mach 1+ helo. If only...

F/A-18F Pilot if we're talking about currently flying aircraft, though if we could step back in time I'd love to have a Tomcat to call my own.
If you want to find out about the life of a "REAL-LIFE" flight dispatcher, they interview one on the "Airplane Geeks" podcast this week!

Emirates A380 captain would probably be mine.
