OK I've refrained from commenting in this thread long enough.

Some years ago I looked briefly at joining this outfit. At the time I had in excess of 1000hrs VFR BN-2 time of which over 900 was command. I was interested in them for the IFR time I might have added. When I spoke to this woman, she couldn't make even 30 minutes in her busy schedule to see me, despite the fact that I had driven the length of the country to get there. That night she rang me back and suggested they may be interested, but there would be a bond. When I asked 'for why?' she told me 'endorsement costs', despite the hours I had on-type and the freshly-minted SPMEIFR. I realised the grass really wasn't any greener on the other side and suggested that she smack her job where the sun don't shine.

Not a decision that I've ever had any cause to regret.
