Am sure that others will continue to perservere despite yout best efforts and will leave you dissappointed for a lifetime as well. So sad my friend.
Cheers anyway.
I agree. Most silently leave the profession never to speak of their flying days again. From my experience most airlines are filled with disgruntled pilots who hate their job at times. They are not ones to waste another minute of their day by spending time on a forum like this.

How is that an equitable system of information exchange? It is human nature to avoid painful memories or experiences. Those who have had their dreams crushed usually just fade away. New pilots never get to hear about the downside yet they are surrounded daily with people who have traveled the same roads to their destruction.

The flag wavers are out there everyday spreading false hope and inaccurate information. More pilots should be here to express their hardships. You refer to my words as being bitter. I am just being honest. It is not common (in aviation)to hear the harsh reality that is not being sugar coated.
