I only ask as I read many on this forum who states that fun of flying quickly fades away and it just becomes another job.
Thank you very much!
I've been at the regionals for over 3 years, and have been flying full time (for a paycheck) for 7 years.
Some people are unhappy no matter what. That said, I haven't been either lucky or unlucky in this career. I know a lot of people that got on with a major or decent LCC by the time they had as much time in as myself, but then again there have been people with multiple furloughs by now too. I work for a pretty decent place, but really do hope I move on to something else in the next year or two... JetBlue, Frontier, VA, or similar are on my list.
