Demomonkey, you only appear to be talking about airlines. Are they the only jobs available for fixed wing pilots? I thought there were more roles within the fixed wing fraternity just like there is within the rotary world.
And I didn't doubt your veracity of your own experience, knowledge or understanding, I doubted that you could have got to where you are without meeting/coming across people who do not believe integrated is best.
