no regrets

I like to think I peaked early!

Civilian airlines are not out to build your career nor extend you in the sense that service life does with its assessments, evaluations and reporting.

Civilians? Actually that is what you are when you leave the Service and what you always were when going about the daily business of family life, walking the dog, bathing the bairns, saving up for the boat etc.

On the day you leave the services, they are already giving it their best shot to get on without you. The same goes for the civilian community you are about to join. They have been getting on with it for the past decade or more and see no reason why they should do without to make up for your lost time. Red carpets are in very short supply. Seniority starts at the bottom. Therefore do the only thing you have completely in your power....

Making a roaring success of your own relationships.

All flying, civil or military is but a chapter in the book and you’re the one writing it.

Welcome aboard!
