But how long is a "few years" for a guy joining today?

As a VERY rough estimate, I'd say 7-8 years

New management, new philosophy, new company really. Don't take 15 year old advice in such a fluid industry.

That being said, in his day, at that time, Frank was right.

Nope,
"Frank Was Right" wisdom of the ages, or aged. It was the only advice/observation that was ever offered that was accurate in this industry. On many days, I regret getting a commercial cert.

To each his own. I've worked in many industries and had many jobs. This is most definitely the best.

I know people who are getting asked to leave the military due to downsizing with no transferable skills, at all, and aren't given a chance to return. I'd say that's worse.

you do realize we had more pilots volunteer to get out early than spots available, right?

Also, very interested to hear about these non-transferable skills
