Times have changed for the better, I dare say.

A good, non-aviation school. Scholarships.

Yeah... I suppose they have.

And to be clear, pilots back then were paying 10k just to get hired into the right seat on an EMB120, J41 or a B1900.

It was the dark ages of aviation... and don;t let it ever come back.

You need an aviation degree to be in aviation?!?!

I've been doing just fine in this industry with a non-aviation degree. Surprising huh? Not sure how I did it...

You've been in this industry long enough to know that every pilot needs a plan B.

Because this job is better than any other job I've ever had. I get more days off, I do nothing on those days off and now I get paid pretty well. Best decision I ever made.

Ok then, all that matters is what makes you happy.
