Thanks and yea, I'm glad I'm doing it because it's my passion. I'm soooooo glad to find out you only have to have the ATP written completed by August so I won't have to cough up an extra 10 grand for that sim training and what not. I live in Texas and want to stay here.... Found a few jobs that look pretty intriguing once I pass 1200 and 50-100 multi

True, it is a lot longer road but the same could be said for anything anymore. I look at the young guys joining the PD right now and wonder what they were thinking. The days of a decent pension are gone but I guess they gotta start somewhere.
