Thanks for sharing that. Your history will help give the folks just getting into this business some perspective. Not that their career will look identical, but it gives them a good flavor. I would invite others who are retired (or are close to it) to share their experiences.

Private pilot SEL, about 90 hours logged. Looking to start my instrument rating soon and I'm here to ask a few questions about the FAA written tables and figures book they release.

Thanks for having me here!

Default Howdy!

Flew for the USAF. Got out and did other things for a few years. Now back to flying professionally. Currently a PC-12 capt charter flying around the Caribbean and having a blast. Will probably make the jump to bigger 135 jets or the airlines in the next few years. I built an RV-7 and love giving friends rides.

Hi everyone!

Long-time viewer, first-time poster. Great site, thanks so much for everyone who posts in support of others (myself included) trying to find our way.

Considering the next phase of my flying career and looking all the options. Great time to be flying for a living, and great to have so many paths from which to choose. We'll see how it goes.

Thanks very much!

Thumbs up Hello from the Pacific North West

What's up everyone.

I am a US Navy vet as an aircraft tech, now looking at the possibility of flying for a living.. Lot's of things to figure out, so hoping to gain some info here.

Hello to all and thanks for each and all who make this such a great site.

Looking at flight options beyond the Army. Good time to transition but not sure which way I'll go (medevac, CBP, corporate, or maybe the leap to fixed wing). Time will tell.

Great to be here and thanks again!

Personal opinion.
In General: Fixed wing is not as hard work. (it all gets harder as the years go by)
For what it's worth.
