Nothing wrong with optimism IMO, as long as its grounded in factual reality instead of myopic fantasy. The latter is usually embraced by those in denial. I wish I could find this post more interesting, but it's not. It's simply the parroting of the same thing I've heard from the same sources repeatedly and sources with agendas of self-advancement at the expense of others. Hey, if you're giddy with joy there, great, but many of your compadres are not. That means your bliss there isn't the only perception of what some are doing here to the detriment of the profession and others opinions and rebuttals are just as valid.
But, yet again we find ourselves in the inexplicable situation of you having the power to remove the annoyance of sad, old men with personality disorders, yet inexplicably, you reject solving your own problem. It seems that's a trait among many present day Envoy pilots, that being solving their problems and not blaming others.
Godspeed, son.
Thanks dad, why should I listen to your advice when it took you 20 years to get to a major?
