Asset Stripper?
Guys I'm going to dip out of this conversation. There are without doubt some bright/educated/experienced people on this forum but I didn't join to be in the position where I had to defend/justify my position. I wouldn't classify myself as an asset stripper. In fact I've saved many businesses and also many jobs.
I was asking a question as I was genuinely interested but the attitude of the people on here just isn't for me. I get the impression that a number of small people sat behind their computer screens feeling that they are making up for their inadequacies by text.
I'm surprised that so many accomplished pilots have managed to avoid becoming craters as your decision making seems to revolve around jumping to conclusions without data or fact.
Good luck
