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.

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