Good Luck! Just retired last year after 46 years, 23,000 + flight hours and around 10 years spent in hotels.

Thanks! I flew in high school and some college, until I realized that would be my life as an airline pilot. Then I started to pursue ATC and airport management. Air Traffic Control is supposedly one of the most stressful jobs out there, but I had a blast with the training I have done, and shadowing in towers around Jacksonville, FL. The worst thing about ATC in my opinion is shift work, but its whatever.. Did you retire from an airline or were you corporate?

From Army Huey's to corporate Hawkers. Retired from corporate / charter flying.

Nice! That's the ticket right there.. if I pursued flying it would either be corporate or cargo. Boxes don't complain LOL

Well, you could complain you're driving a Chevy truck. ;)

Not just a job, I thank God for His graces to do this kind of work ...

30, 10 years Navy and another year doing avionics installs at Gulfstream. Got laid off end of 2015 so I took a job at the USPS as an electronic technician. Pay isn't as good but the benefits are nice and I don't have to worry too much about getting laid off again in my craft.

I'm an RPR 3 (construction inspector), at a civil/municipal engineering firm. Sanitary piping and pump stations, water treatment plants, water main, etc, etc. Part time helicopter pilot, just for fun.
