One thing to remember guys is that all of you are arguing with totally different perspectives on aviation.....what I mean by this is that I can honestly say that I and a majority of the guys that I flew with on the airbus pretty much looked at it as a "job" because we did the same thing over and over, push back, sat there for 2+ hours, landed, hotel, beer, sleep...then maybe a little more beer. There were times I don't think I even looked outside during cruise for the entire 4 hour flight to LGA.

I can remember when I was a cfi and landed my first jet job in a lear, I thought I was king kong and then came the RJ, oh man 50 pax, I am finally a real pilot. Finally the airbus, I thought I had finally made it. 1000 hours later I am starting to feel like the little guy again parked next to the 777.

I am totally cool leaving because I got to make it to my goal. You have someone who might be a CFI right now arguing about how great aviation is with someone like SKY who has been there done that. Not to say others on here like UPS who are extremely qualified, but he is in a great spot and with his situation it works for him.

Its just funny to me to hear so many different arguments about aviation when half of the guys on here are in so many different levels in there aviation career.

I bet if we got 10 senior captains at a major airline to all come on and give us there perspective it would be interesting, but I would guess that majority would tell us to do something different.
