I'd switch careers and make some money for a change. It would probably be a blessing.

funny, was thinking the same thing lately. Except for the vegan part. Lots of money to be made in honey, and the best part: You sit on your ass, waiting! Just like flying medevacsScuba_Steve wrote:I'd become a vegan bee-keeper...

Nope. You can get critical illness coverage from an insurance company. It covers a very wide range of illnesses. Not aviation specific but does cover your ass should such a thing happen.lastchance wrote:Years ago there used to be 'loss of licence' insurance. Not sure if this is still available.
I have it for piece of mind for myself and my family.

Once I was experienced and had choices, working for an operator with good benefits and license insurance definitely was a factor.

I'm in school for Pre Health and going into Medical Laboratory Science. I'm looking forward to a stable life, better pay and a home of my own
