Gearupandorf,
I'm not necessarily committed to an aviation career - do plenty of enjoyable flying on weekends etc and can afford to build it up both in hours and size.
That said, I haven't quite been able to shake the nagging desire to leave well paid job and fly for full time (I almost said 'a living' but regional FO salaries are not quite what I'd call a 'living'). My circumstances don't/won't allow me to leave the big smoke to 'go north' so I'm happily building hours outside the professional avenue until suchtime as a 'later in life' semi-retirement job in either GA or the reigionals cropped up (and to be frank, I'm too used to my creature comforts to live on rubbish money in the middle of nowhere!). That the opportunity may have come now is something of a suprise and so I'm jumping for it and if it doesn't come off then ces't la vie, back to plan A accepting the risk that I may never fly for a career.
UTR.
