10watt the lifeboat is pretty full, with lots of us in it with you.
in my industry I survived for years but eventually retrenchment hit me.
decided to give my love of aviation a run.
I went on a Commercial theory course to fast track the work and passed.
Two weeks before the end of the course Ansett collapsed and the jobs market evaporated.
previous employ evaporated, aviation evaporated, everything since then has gradually evaporated.
who cares.
nothing to get morbid about.
a lot of ex atpl's build themselves a little homebuilt and fly that.
try to stay out of debt.
be kind to people around you.
never ever close your mind to a new idea.
