Most of my fellow army aviators are going to the various Rotorcraft Transition Programs offered by several airlines. For me personally, quality of life factors are more important than shiny jets. I have a ranch in central Texas so a job that would not require me to move is high on the list of what I'm looking for. Also, a job that offers a challenge and sense of accomplishment is also high on that list. I have just begun my ASEL add on to my rotorcraft inst/comm. ticket so I hope to finalize a clear path for after retirement in the coming months. Have a great day.
