As Robbiee says, there has always been a pilot shortage. There has also never been a shortage of pilots who do nothing but complain about how terrible this industry is.
Happy to report that after 30+ years that retirement is in sight. A supportive wife who has been there since day 1, a very healthy bank account, a multi-million dollar home paid for, a beautiful helicopter paid for, the cars, the toys....and most importantly, what a fantastic journey over the past decades. Would happily go back and do it all over again. Best of luck to you.
Hi mate,
I really appreciate the positivity and thanks for sharing.
I definitely have more to offer than just being a pilot. Who doesn't want a full geological history and story of the area you're looking at whilst flying around
