Hi FT'ers -- Gadling.com is looking for a new blogger!

We need someone who knows the airline industry inside and out -- someone who flies regularly, keeps themselves informed of the happenings of airlines both domestically and worldwide, and is comfortable expressing their well-formed opinion to our readers. Did Southwest detain another questionably-clothed passenger? Did another South American plane overshoot the runway? We want someone who keeps up with the latest news, oddities, and everything else under the airline industry umbrella, and can report back to our readers quickly. A good example of coverable stories can be found in the FlyerTalk Newsstand forum -- that's the type of news we're looking to have coverage on. Prospective bloggers should be willing to write anywhere between 7 and 15 article per week (each which ranges anywhere from 150-400 words). This is a paid, freelance position.

Please send an email to justinglow at gmail dot com with the following information:

1. Your full name.
2. Tell us what your experiences are in the airline industry. Do you work for Delta? Do you just fly a lot? Tell us why you're the one for this position.
3. Have you ever blogged before? Do you currently write for/keep a blog?
4. Write three original (as in never-before-published) blog posts that cover breaking airline industry news. Blog posts should be well-written in the style commonly used by Gadling bloggers: casual in tone, with a healthy dose of humor when applicable.
5. Do not include any attachments. All information should be in the body of an email -- including the sample posts.

Any other questions can be directed towards the same email address. Thanks!
