What about the simple fact that you get to fly? Obviously I love it considering I went out and got my PPL... I was hooked after my first lesson... hell I was hooked after my first commercial flight in 1991 as a kid... Right now I just can't afford to enjoy it anymore... It seems like GA is now reserved for the rich...(Only way it's affordable is to fill the seats and have everyone pay) So I figure why not give it purpose rather than simple enjoyment? Why not make it my career?
That brings me to another point... What about all the 135 jobs that might pop up once these VLJ's and the like hit the market? My mind is open to anything flying... airlines or not.
