Warning..well past sell by date, but FWIW

1. I wouldn't say having doubts should automatically rule you "out".I defy anyone to say they never ever had a "WTF am I doing here" moment...but I suspect for most of us it was a brief one..

2. IMHO you can get away with being a slightly square peg in a round hole, it can make for some interesting conversations, you can still have an enjoyable time and make great lifelong friends, just accept that if your views are too off kilter you might not make the dizzy ranks of Marshall of the RAF..

3. Location, Location...well if the bright lights are what you are after then yes, you do have a problem ...Sleaford is probably untouched by modern hand, are Sundays still dry In Anglesey? .....As for the op stuff I left before the desert became fashionable, but I did spend over a month living on a car ferry.......and then we moved to a "facility" which in it's later life became part of a US prison....

4. AP is absolutely correct in stating..." if want to you choose where you live and mainly just fly multi engine aircraft with people you don't know and don't have to socialise with, go to the airlines."

Ultimately you've got one crack at IOT and beyond, you won't get another go - and if you walk away now you will never ever know "could I have done that...". Now if you can live with that...
