[QUOTE="xnavychief, post: 1800275, member: 24455"] I have my private pilots but let my class III medical expire in Hawall because I couldn't afford the rental rates and haven't returned to flying since. If you love flying, you'll hate anything else that you do because there is nothing like it. I personally found it to be quite monotonous and boring outside of taking off and landing. I say do what you love regardless of pay or you'll be miserable in the long run, as many who have chased money can attest. The Airline industry isn't hiring many pilots these days and for most maintaining ratings and certs is a full time job on it's own. As an aircrewman for 21 years in the Navy I flew with many pilots who are much more happy flying tuna(or insert other crazy cargo)out of the pacific rim in taped together C-131's, 118's, 97's or other such rust buckets than they ever were playing the commercial passenger game.
