Thanks Saintly, what a great post to read - a timely reminder of how most of us felt embarking on an aviation career, and how fortunate we are to do this instead of having a proper job (notwithstanding all our usual complaints). I’m no expert on the diabetes situation, but my understanding is that it’s not the total showstopper it used to be, so hopefully you can find a way around it. I really wish you all the best with your aviation ambitions - there are some good opportunities right now, and it sounds like you’ve got the right attitude. Never say never!
