The pros for me coming back are keeping longevity for pay and 401k, remaining home based (NYC) and back in the left seat in short order considering the need for qualified Captains. It will be a real kick in the uprights loosing 4 years of seniority
Sure but if you and everyone else hadnt left things would have never got better here. Also, reserve blew.
Youre home based and making good money don't leave until you have to. Otherwise, we'd obviously love to have you back.
