Diversify.

If you never make it back to a cockpit, muh - big deal.
I don't much care for this line of thinking. It comes from guys who have never been furloughed or displaced. They will tell you it is simply part of the progression. I say that if you are young enough to do something else then RUN!!! Run as fast as you can! Go to medical school. Hell, sell used cars. You will do better then you will here. The glory days are over for ever.

I hate to be so negative but I am afraid this is true. Those of you still young enough to start over should get moving.
