I appreciate the sympathetic response. I was a faip about 11 years ago, then flew fast movers in the war and am currently in the reserves flying strat air while on furlough from my company (NetJets). I ask about UAV because I may have a shot at an AGR position closer to home flying UAV's. My concern is that if NJA goes tits up and I'm in the AGR position, I wont have any recency. If for whatever reason I can't retire from the AGR position I'm screwed and will have to find a probably poor paying gig to get some hours before reapplying to the better paying jobs. I know, potentially good problem to have, but I'm weighing all my options before making a decision. The experience of anyone who has faced a similar problem is greatly appreciated.
