just do a short paragraph outlining your intention to apply and a summary of why you are great:

dear hr person,

I would like to be put forward for the position advertised in the paper/online/etc.
I have x years experience doing y and feel I could be a valuable addition to your team. please find attached my cv,

yours etc.

cheesy, but it lets them know which job you are going for and that you're not some random bloke mailing his cv to all and sundry.
ah thanks,

i shall get on it now! :hangloose
:D
I've used this a couple of times and got interviews :incheek:

Dear Sir,

The advertisement placed on the Flight International website for the above position is of great interest to myself.

Having served within the industry for the past 27 years fully utilising my aviation, administration and personnel skills I firmly believe that my experience and capabilities are a very close match to the position as stated and would be a valuable contribution to your operations in the future.

I have much pleasure in enclosing my curriculum vitae for your perusal and look forward to arranging a meeting to discuss my further application.
