All great advice. I am single engine VT's right now, but left my last tour with 800 hrs PIC multi. Next (last) tour will likely be multi also, so should be fine. I'm gonna look into the dentist gig. I heard anesthesiologist is even better Most of our reservists are continental, with a few SWA guys. They say the same thing as my old man (retired USAir), "Do something else"... We'll see. Thanks again, as ya'll have been very helpful.
