Speed....Right on brawther!!! Working for Virgin as opposed to sitting on my furloughed cabbose might be a way to go. (making some money vs making my wife work double time to make up for my career choice) Hell who knows getting in on the ground floor might pay off in the long run. If things dont pan out a guy can always tell Virgin to go pound sand. Just a thought. Hey speed I had a 9 capt tell me he would not give up open flying for me to come back because he has 1 kid in college. Gee I drive a semi part time and do some pilot service around DSM and my wife and I seem to find a way to send our kid to college....whats he doing with his money???? Thats it, I'm taking him off my Christmas Card list.
