Lots of haters bro, ignore them. Take it in stride and keep pluggin away at your career. I flight instructed with low time, and at 29 i was in the left seat of a 47.
With that said, stay humble, stay positive, and like someone said never stop learning, never think you know it all. I used to scour trade-a-plane thinking I could skip over the instructing to build time, never happened and im glad. Instructing gave me a very good base as an aviator. From there I learned a great deal in small twins, single pilot, east coast. Wouldn't give up that experience either, even though it was the toughest flying ive ever had to do. Experience is expensive, but if you pay the price you wont regret it. One key thing to remember someone passed along to me when i started flying night freight; NEVER and I mean NEVER let dispatch, scheduling, or your chief pilot talk you into doing something unsafe or that you are uncomfortable doing. Good luck, welcome to the club.
