I know that this has prolly been posted many times before and is a totally opionated question (or answer) but I feel like I am at a fork in the road and dont know wether to go left of right. I have the time to go to the refionals (1300TT, 220ME) but am not sure if that is what I want to do. I am married and I think that that will play a factor in it, altough my wife is a nurse and can find work anywhere, but anytime I talk to a REGIONAL pilot or any airline pilot for that matter and tell them that I am thinking about putting my resume in they cringe. Not really the feedback you want. Why do I want to go make 17000 a year and have to sit in a crew lounge at the airport all day waiting for my phone to ring? The job I have now is good and I am fortunate to be where I am at but to take the plunge is pretty serious. Their has got to be a better way.
