Young Helicopter Pilots.....Listen up!  

Buddy went to the airlines when we were a couple of years into helicopters.  I said I love helicopters.  He just retired from united.  His paycheck was 46K a month.  He could make 60K a month if he worked overtime, but he had no need.

It was the biggest mistake of my career.  It's been ok, but man, did I screw the pooch.

If you can do it, do it!. 

They're hiring 7,000 pilots a year for the forseable future.  That doesn't even count if you want to work overseas, and man those guys pay even bigger!

Good luck.  You're crazy if you don't go for it, but you won't know that until you're 60 something and you'll remember you had a chance.
