well~~I guess it applies to any jobs or even life in general.....luck, timing and of course your skills.
I had an opportunity to fly C182 to build up hours before but it came at the wrong timing, I've got the skills to do it, just not enough luck. I do believe tho, determination is the thing that's gonna bring us thru at the end of it.
Keep the heads up guys!!
Cheers~
