Again, this was just my medical, not training. So that's just my point of view so it may be why I think that way that if I'm going to fly, I'm going to fly.
But at what point is it not worth it from a dollars and cents standpoint? You spent all that money just to get your medical, plus all the money you had to spend to get all the way through your ATP. Is that worth it to be stuck at a regional for 10 plus years? What other skills do you have? How much money could you be making doing something else? These are things people need to consider.
