Default Considering getting back in the saddle!

Hello All -

It has been a long time coming, but after a ~4 year hiatus, I am back on APC. After leaving ExpressJet in January 2013 - I have been working at a major (It may be obvious but please don't say the name) in Dallas, doing revenue strategy for two years, and now corporate planning for the past two. This has given be great insight into how 'Management' works, and how decisions that may seem counterproductive come to light. I am proud to say that I have always been the voice of pilots, and done my best to invoke strategies that are both good for passengers, and shareholders while furthering the profession, rather than reducing it to the lowest bidder.

I have been rather successful thus far, having been promoted 3 times in as many years, but am starting to really miss being in and around airplanes. I am not looking (yet) to get back into a regional part 121 cockpit, but would love to find a career where both my analytical skills, and background in aircraft operations could be utilized. Any thoughts, inputs or leads would be appreciated!

I just recently got married, and my wife has a very good job here too, so I am not looking to move, such I am willing to wait for the right opportunity in the DFW Metroplex.

Thank you!
