I'm a 100hr PPL and my 6,000hr. CFII/MEI has said basically the same thing. I remain skeptical and work a day job but I hope he's right. I told him basically that if he's right, then he'd be hired way before I would be.

In the meantime I'm slowly working on my Instrument Rating...looking forward to when I don't have to stare at a computer all day long like a schmuck.
