No apologies, thanks.

I graduated in the recession with all licenses except CFI with 201 hours and the airlines/regional were not hiring. Frankly I was out of money to get my CFI and didnt see a viable way of paying a loan back working as a CFI and eventually with the regionals given the extremely low pay back then. So I moved on to another career until the aviation bug got the best of me and I didnt care anymore about money, but wanted to do what I loved. Thats the honest truth.

The regionals will be in my immediate future, as I work to improve my competitiveness with the majors through the next few years.

Thanks for everyones input!
