After a year without a job I managed to land a position within the Aviation field. Not great but at least I am a Manager and make more than I did at the airlines. I have networked and managed to make some connections for a new position down the road. It has better vacation, sick time, benefits, and pay than I could expect at a major after 20 years.

I still miss flying though. And looking ahead, that "missing of the job" seriously scares the crap out of me. I think I was one of the lucky ones. I was young and at a major when I was furloughed. I just don't know.
