"Just about everyone that is a pilot had a choice a while ago, do something you love or settle for something you hate but pays better. "
Just about everyone who chose to be a pilot loves flying. You hear it all the time from the young ERU 200 hour wonders, "Heck, I'd do this job for free, I love flying so much".
Well, after 20 some odd years of flying heavy metal, "love" doesn't pay the bills. And having your DB retirement stripped away and your pay cut 50% makes you wonder what the heck you were thinking back then "choosing" to get involved in this crazy business.
