I thought Tonker's original posting was to the effect of "If you could go back in time and do your flight career over again..."

I'm well aware of the condition of the legal profession in today's environment as there are numerous attorneys in the family and two judges; however, Tonker asked about going back in time, a luxury we don't have.

I was lucky. I got into flying a l-o-n-g- time ago and was at one of the majors during "the great years". No one has 20-20 foresight so we make the best choices we can. My point was the industry has changed so much in the past half dozen years, it's not the same and the future is cloudy at best.

As for the avatar, I couldn't find a good Marine Fox-Four and had to settle for one from the "Force". Sorry about that.
