Denny, Thanks for the reply. I'm giving some consideration to leaving my fairly secure job with the U.S. Postal Service, to move back into the world of professional aviation; specifically AG. (yes...I lost my mind a long time ago ) I'm curious how a potential employer would view a new AG school graduate with my (ahem) experience. My current stats are: 48 years old, former CFI SEL, less than 600 hrs. TT, 125 hrs. tailwheel, 390 hrs. PIC. Ok, here comes the good part....I haven't touched the controls of an airplane in 12 years.
I know I couldn't just step back in like I'd never been away; it would take quite a while to get myself back up to speed. But, if I did, and then went to a reputable AG school, how would you rate my chances of getting a seat? I didn't get out of flying because I didn't love it. That course change involved family and financial considerations which have since changed.
Anyway, your brutal honesty would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Mike
