I wouldn't say aspires to, however, it is a VERY viable option. Those of us who are career changers still dream of making it to the big dance. I'm sure there is "a career changer" out there saying that once they exceed the minimums for the major pax & cargo that they'll throw their hat in the ring. What do they have to lose? Nothing. At that stage of the game being able to compete is an accomplish in and of itself.
