I don't think going to National was a poor choice. Compared to what? They could have been the next SWA story. You think the Morris Air guys that ended up SWA made a poor choice? How about the IPEX guys that are the top 100 at UPS? Both of those were third tier jobs at one time but ended up being great choices.

In hindsight, you can say it was a poor choice cause it didn't work out, but luck of the draw is really what it's about.

"Luck is where persistence meets opportunity....don't EVER give up and you WILL make a major"

I kinda see your point but the problem is, it's like saying "don't ever give up and someday you'll get hired at UPS". It just isn't so. Plus, Coex is a major, that isn't what most people had in mind as a pilot career. There are no guarantees in this business.

I think Skyhigh's point of view is something every newbie should take the time to understand. Understand where he's coming from and how he got there. It's something the big academy marketers don't want you to see.

The people who use personal attacks towards Skyhigh have no business doing so. You only stoop to that level when you have no argument.
