"Your story isn't over yet either."

Yeah it is, I could retire tomorrow at 46 and not look back. But, of course, Skyhigh is right. There is risk in the airline career, all you 19 year old lurkers, listen up. UPS could tank in five years and we'd could all be on the street. I think risk is part of life. You can't eliminate it altogether.

Glad Skyhigh is here to warn us there is risk in life, though.

"You are one of the lucky ones. UPS, FedEx and SWA are about the best things going right now."

Wait....I seem to remember you saying you wouldn't work for SWA. You CHOSE not to consider them when National tanked and you were a 121 current and qualifed 757 F/O. Yet, you say it's one of the only good jobs around and preach doom and gloom. What kind of credibility does someone have who preaches doom and gloom and couldn't find it in himself to work as a pilot at a SWA.

See people, Skyhigh made choices that knocked him down. Be sure to read that into his never changing stuff, here.

I'm starting to think Skyhigh should NEVER have gone into aviation. That's what he tells me with every post I read.
