Millerscourt - I think you missed the point of the question. It is not about whether to be a pilot or not, it's about finding out more about the job itself. Which job you might ask. Well, how about yours. Give us a little bit of insider info into what to look forward too, or what to look out for. There is absolutely no doubt that I would rather be a professional pilot. I'm sitting in an office because this is the best way for me to get the dosh to pay for training. Redsnail gave us a good insight into various types of professional flying. How about you tell us what's it like being a A340 Captain.
