8hour, do you mean ever?...or not right now. I think we all know the cyclical nature of this industry. Seems like now is the time to get back in if this is one's intended career. I hear some say to earn a living another way and fly for fun. I can attest to the dificulties of keeping aviation a part of your life in that way. Foremost is the costs of GA now. It's prohibitive to anyone not financially elite. Also, it is extremely difficult to write off the years of training and time/investment that accompanied it just to pursue another career in the interest of a paycheck.
