I would like to apologize for being so harsh on my first post. After, reading the replies and thinking about it a little bit; I agree with you guys. Although, I don't ever agree with Skyhigh; he is merely giving his perspective of the industry. Skyhigh's perspective and my perspective are obviously completely different. I see it completely different, because I know so many people in this industry who have been successful or are successful. My oldest so is a FO with FDX; his childhood best friend is a FO for AS. My youngest son is a captain at express jet. My youngest son has about 3 close friends who are FO's with major airlines( I know 2 of them are at CO). Maybe, my perspective is skewed; because, the majority of people I know in the industry are successful. Obviously, there are downsides to this industry. I feel that the upsides out weigh downsides, without a doubt. This is arbitrary, just my perspective.

And of course, I have been fortunate enough to have an excellent career; I would not trade it for any other job in the world. Unless, I could have played football for the Kansas City Chiefs

Or any NFL team for that matter. I guess I lied, I would have liked to play on the PGA tour too
