It is not uncommon for a pilot to experience a few stretches in their career of aviation nirvana. I have been there too. Then something changes, the company merges, schedules are moved, bases get closed, wife gets pregnant and the mirage is broken. Then we struggle for the next ten years trying to find the sweet spot again.

A career is a long time. A lot can and will happen. Most of it not all that good.
