Nope, I only flew jets for two decades, while managing to save enough money to not be worried about finding a job anytime soon.

Two decades in the Navy. How about private sector? How would you do if they flooded us with Indian pilots? They have close to a billion people over there. I am sure there would be a sufficient number of pilots who are as qualified as you. How would you be saving money then? No, I would say I am just clueless.

I would say so, too. I specially enjoyed how you suggested that he should go over your house to show you how to turn your pc on. Cool.

Have a nice day.

You, too. Unless you have other plans.

Lots of responses, so I will keep it brief.

Do you have any idea what it takes to hold a commercial licence to fly passengers? Probably not. However, the fact that I have been invited to train at Delta, American and Southwest Airlines means that I might just do alright in the private sector, should I decide to go that route.

I surmise that there is something about the $5M worth of training and experience your tax dollars paid for, that the airlines want. The point is, I made choices that allow me to decide when I will work; choices that are available to every living American at one time or another.

There aren't any pilots that can hold a candle to Navy pilots!
