Am I right-headed in thinking that I should stick it out, finish my
commercial and CFI on my own time? It's unrealistic to ditch a job for a
CFI position and a 65% pay cut but I still want to increase my proficiency
and expertise flying. I don't care if it costs me an extra thousand or two
in the long run.

Thoughts?


Get your commercial in whatever schedule you can afford. Once you
have your commercial see what you want to do next. Who knows maybe
you'll want to learn how to fly a helicopter. What ever you do, keep
it fun. If it's Your hobby, Your money, and Your desire; it should be
on Your time.

HTH, and glad you're working again.

and two kids

You sound like me, except I was working on my commercial until son #2 was
born (which coincided with a busy time at work). I'll probably finish it
up in the Spring (assuming we manage to hire at least one more programmer,
which is in process).

One of the motivators for me is sitting right seat with the kids. They're
3.3 and .5 at the moment, so I'm *way* ahead of myself. But I dislike
working under time pressure laugh.

Why do you think that you need a commercial rating to sit in the right
seat?
