If I could turn back time...

I gave up airline flying as a Captain in my thirties about fifteen years ago and I can honestly say that it was the best decision I ever made.

For the previous decade I was almost permanently tired, hassled and underpaid.

If I had my time again I certainly would not have put myself through all the stress and financial hardship that I suffered to gain my ATPL.

Initially I did miss the flying, however, that soon passed and now I would not return to professional flying under any circumstances.

Having followed the industry since I returned to my previous profession, I do feel sympathy for today's flightcrews.
