Its a bitter sweet love with aviation, and I think there is an argument there, but like I have always said before, flying is not a job, its fun and if you approach it that way you will always have a good time.
I will never stop my quest for Alaska Airlines and one day I will get there. It dose not mean however that if I was a 22 year old that I would be taking any flight lessons nor does it mean that even if I were to get hired at AS that I would stay there long. It only means that I have a goal to get my corny picture taken in an Alaska Airlines uniform "while employed as such" and then see what happens.

As far as flying being fun. I am sure was at one time. Poverty, losses and disappointment tarnished it a bit. It is also fun to play video games but no one is lining up to pay a living wage to do that either. Eventually we all need to earn a real living.
