No, I fully understand that, and I fully respect it

That's why I said "if" you're goal is to get to a major airline ... not "since" your goal. I envy people who want to go outside of the airlines to get a good aviation gig, it's great! Personally, I have my heart set on the airlines. More power to those to choose to take different paths!
