I've been out for over five years now, I'll be the first to say I miss it...at least parts of it. The crews were fantastic, the overnights were often fun, and the plane was a blast to fly. I've started to see the "swing" of things in the industry, specifically with my peers. One friend left for an overseas assignment before ever upgrading at the regionals...he now flies a 787 in Qatar...one friend was just picked up at Airways, plenty of old buddies are at Jet Blue and I'm sure I'll see a friend move from Compas to Delta within the next couple years. And GOOD FOR THEM! I'm all for seeing my friends move up in the world, they stuck it out and are reaping the rewards!

I called it quits and opened a different book, regrets are here and there but all in all I'm satisfied with my career choice and grateful I was able to participate in aviation when I did...something about captaining an airliner in your early 20's that I'll always remember.

Best of luck in the law field, and can't wait to hear back in a couple years!
Now that is a honest post!!!
