And yet people on this board have difficulty believing that not every pilot born wants to fly the *heavy metal*
It takes all types of people. Personally, I wanted to be a fighter pilot and a helo pilot (LOVE LOVE LOVE to fly low) and even wanted the KC-130 to travel the world at one point because I do just love to fly, but the one thing that I am pretty sure I didn't want to do, nor now want to do, was fly BIG airplanes up in the flight levels.
On this I agree with Zap....do what makes you happy and HOPE that it lasts
