That is very good. Because much like in the 1970's when getting hired at a major airline was a pipe dream worthy of only the finest psychedelics only those who are truly driven will succeed. So- less student starts means less competition.

I would have been very happy to fly WWII era aircarft around the Caribbean. In fact, that was my career goal. No military and less than 20/20 vision. No major for me! The industry changed and they started taking civilians with less than 20/20. And so, here I am. And here could anyone be.

BTW- loaded up on 5.56mm and .25-06. They were sold out of .38 shot shells.
