After 10 years of commercial flying and three years instructing, I can honestly say I'm getting bored with cruise flying, airport standbys, meaningless home standbys and the routine nature of airline flying.
I joined because I loved flying ( which includes the great view, manipulating the controls (!), the challenge of not hitting the ground at the wrong point and dare I say ...fun?
Now I never expected 'airline flying' to be "fun fun fun" but I'm finding it increasingly boring as the Cruise sectors get longer and longer. I've even considered changing careers and letting someone keen, young and thrusting take my seat but I still want to fly!
Somewhere out there are some interesting and challenging flying jobs, but where are they to be found? If anybody has any suggestions please either PM me or post below so we can all benefit.
Thanks
FYI 5000hrs TT, 2500 B737, 1200TP
