My charter job had 4 hard days off a month and a half hour call out on duty days. If I was twenty years younger I would apply at Skywest or Horizon.
I salute you sir! I can't begin to imagine all the stories and knowledge you could share. More power to you, and I hope you enjoy your retirement from aviation.
