In response to my own original post, not directed to Blackhawk (just so we're clear), I have since had a Snickers. My response was born out of jealousy. That's the root of it. I hope ufgatorpilot has an awesome time. I would be doing the same thing if I could. It is, however, frustrating, when you see some pilots treat furlough as a year long vacation, when you're looking at your third one, and are seriously trying to figure out how to provide for your family. Like I said, it's jealousy. I love my family and have no regrets starting one, but it's an entirely different ballgame, obviously. I've done everything I possibly can to be prepared for this. Including the fact that I am a major airline pilot with two part jobs right now.
