Absolutely. One perspective is, "I left the profession because it can't be done." The other perspective is, "We're living proof it can be done." I think one perspective is far more legitimate.

I get the same feeling taxiing the mighty MD-11 around Narita or Incheon or Osaka. With a ramp full of nothing else but 747s, we're the little guy. I thought you said you were bored? How's that possible?
