Hey Chip,

A little off topic, but was wondering if you had any advice for a beginner career pilot. I'm currently a First Officer for a commuter airline with about 2,000 hours. Here are my questions:

-Any advice for a fairly new/ young career pilot? -Do you think the military gave you much more opportunities as an aviator? -I've always wanted to be a pilot, because I saw pilots as pioneers back when I was younger. Unfortunately, it seems to be getting farther and farther from the truth as cockpits become more and more automated. Where do you see the industry going in the next 50 years? -Is space travel the new frontier? Or is it just a commercial hype right now?

Any responses are appreciated! Thanks!
