If you want to fly I say apply but here is a little food for thought.... I worked part time at Walmart changing tires and oil for seven months... during those seven months I made just over 7k... I flew about 950 hrs this year... grossed 28.5k with 108 days off before I add in Walmart which drops my true days off during those 7 months to 4 and my total for the year to 46.
No I didn't make this up.... this is the reality of the situation...
