What would you consider to be a real job? Im sure there are a lot of flight professional instructors out there who have quite a wide spread student base and great professional reputation who love what they do and make a fair wage at it who would argue with the "real job" comment.
It's good to know there's still a few professional instructors around. I was beginning to think they were all doing it as a part-time job until something better comes along. My hero & mentor started instructing before WWI & taught fighter pilots in both world wars. He retired in 1967 aged 75 when he was forced to give up instructing, much to his disgust. I was privileged to know & be taught by such a man.
