Well, the last time I posted in Regional, I was given a lesson in the Socratic method!

However, I have been itching to say this: much has been made and continued to be made about SkyHigh and his pessimism, but his perspective is precisely what newbies into aviation need to know in order to make a fully informed decision. What he has to say is not pretty all the time, but that's life. I am a glass half full person, and I choose to see the value in his posts. I do not always agree with him, but I appreciate his perception and candor. Those who have been attacking him resort to juvenile name calling and hiding behind anonymous call signs. If you have something useful to say, some good counterpoint, bring them on! Last I heard, pilots are never short of opinions.
