Well you wouldn't have to invest 50K if you didn't do that GS internship you went to now would you? TPROP you ask SKY how he made the industry better but how about you explain to the rest of us how you made it better by being the 20th paying passenger on a 19 seat aircraft? In my opinion, SKY made it better by being one less qualified experienced pilot others have to compete. Heck if all the high time guys get out, maybe the low times peeps will get their shot. But its hard to compete against people who have money to pay for their seat. That to me means one less paying flying job for the pilots on the street which is what this thread is about. Rant over.
