Jeremy Feldman has been involved with The Log since 2016, when he joined as a board member. This was perfect, as it gave him the latitude to combine his passion for writing alongside aviation. Aside from the Log Board, he has worked as an easyJet captain based out of Luton for the past eight years. Before easyJet, Jeremy was working in hot Hong Kong and steamy Singapore, flying for Tigerair (now called Scoot). Before that, he worked for a number of smaller operators, principally based around glorious Gatwick. Tori Bottomley is a first officer with British Airways on the A320 fleet. Currently living in the North West, she began flying the Airbus in 2019, with easyJet, based out of Liverpool. She joined BA in summer 2023, and has since been enjoying the sights of Europe as you may have seen from our travel section. She has an obsession with old books and she is currently on a mission to see the worlds oldest libraries. Although a fan of painting, paddleboarding and wild swimming, Tori is most likely to be found in a caf somewhere, typing on her laptop. 10 THE LOG Sum 24 pp10-12 Log Biographies.indd 10 13/06/2024 13:20
