I've been having an instant message coversation for the last hour with an old friend who now lives in London. Although I work in travel and he works in the totally different world of international finance, we can talk and keep our long friendship going because he is a warm and genuine person, and I would like to hope that he thinks the same about me. I truly think that if I dropped into one of his international finance forums that I'd be received warmly there, that doesn't seem to hold true here. True, genuine people in one's life is truly a blessing and giving your energy to backbiting people is not. I sincerely hope that some of the people on this forum find their road to happiness. Blue skies and tailwinds to all!

I just want to say that there are those of us who appreciate you for your sacrifice and service...
Thanks

I agree. Pilots who talk only to other pilots tend to make bad career decisions, and even worse investment decisions.
