Well said 'Krusty' I am at the end of a lifelong career as a pilot. I've been at all ends of this industry and if ever one word sums it up, it is 'commitment'. If you do not have a total commitment to this industry and a love of flying it will eat you up and spit you out in a heartbeat. In your early years it might even kill you. It requires dedication and hard work and like everything asking for these qualities it will give you a hell of a ride. The future is fantastic for people prepared to run the gauntlet, get out there and do it.
