How will you spend your ExTO?
Just curious what those who are taking the ExTO plan to do with the time off?
I've talked to a couple of pilots who are going back to school, one who is going back to his old corporate job, and one who bought an RV and is going to homeschool his kids for a year as they explore the country.
All great ideas. What are your plans?

Single so pretty flexible. First plan is a winter ski road trip. A week in every resort that interests me. Starting in Montana and working south through Idaho, Wyoming, Utah and eventually Colorado. This is assuming ski resorts open next winter. Maybe buy a boat in the spring once I'm back in FL and learn to fish.

Working. 50% pay doesn’t work on 1 income.

Wish I could "like" this! Thank you to all of you that can afford it!

I also assumed whiskey and women were a given and didn't even need to be mentioned.
