I'm over the internship thing and really just want to accomplish my next goal in life. I have heard that flying an airliner is easier than a cessna so just want to stand on top of the mountain without being a sherpa guide if that makes sense. Surely if you talk to the right person this is a possibility? It's not about the money, it's about the challenge.

ED why don't you Pawn the Rolex and BMW and Citiation and just buy your own Airline?

Since you would be the owner you could become a the Chief Pilot too.
You could design even design a new Uniform and I imagine yours would have
"5" stripes instead of the usual "4".

You know Ed, I'd be honored to serve you a cup of coffee....... do you take "Cream" with that Capt?
