Just like guys like you and DE727UPS like to flag wave in favor of an aviation career guys like Tony and I are here to present the opposite view.

If you were just waving your flag in favor of being a carpenter, there would be no issue. You don't stop there. You insist that aviation is an inferior life choice, and not worth the investment.

Don and I are here to dispute that assertion.

You said compatible, I think you meant comparable. In a way, you're correct. Aviation isn't comparable to other professions -- it's unique, and to those of us who desire it, it's far superior. In fact, the word incomparable fits perfectly -- eminent beyond comparison.
