Haven't checked back on this forum in a while. In relation to my post above it was was actually in reponse to Stallstrip, more specifically when I said "inexperienced dreams" when he starting taking about hand flying at 38000ft and all the rest etc. The post was not a swipe at you at all. Yes I certainly take your point that the route is now changed to getting that first job. As you said is it a good or a bad thing. Well it's impossible to say. It's certainly not my job to say either way.
Now, time for me to retreat again and let it get back to the original topic.
