Away You Go

Well, a breath of fresh air from everybody.

If I can weigh in with over 42 years in the industry, I say:

You'll be in your mid-thirties whether you go flying or not. Get out and do what you want to do. It would be a sad day for you, if, in 10 years you look back and 'wished' you had taken the step to become an aviator.

With the airframe manufacturers having books bulging with orders, I can only wish I was your age and starting over again.

And as for maternity leave, I can only say that I had the pleasure of requalifying a new Mom, after she had come from 6 months leave.

now. Go Fly!😄😄
