Ok, here is a 35 old (young) not wet behind ears anymore guy. I'm having +1000 jet hours in GA. First of all, what operations are they doing? Scheduled flights or corporate. If it's corporate, be prepared. Low flying, a lot of standby days, low payment and the always never ending bs of GA companies. I would stay with the IT business. You will have a lot better outlook. Nowadays a pilot has to think about his marketvalue. So stay with the IT man and try to fly funwise.
