Interesting looks like you're right. Are they in the reserves are did they go active duty? Do you know if you're able to still keep your job seniority if you go active duty or is that only for the reserves/guard. I see theres a 5 year limit but not entirely sure how that works/applies.

Currently a regional first officer and lately I've thinking about applying to the military. I've always wanted to serve and fly for the military but have never pursued it before. I hear a lot of stories of military guys coming to the airlines, but not too many in the reverse order? I also know the guard/reserve reccomended a lot, however due to my age of 29 I think I missed the window for that. Question I ask is, would it be fullish for me to leave my current airline to become a active duty flight member? I feel my time window is small and I may regret it later down the road if I do not try. Any thoughts/inputs appreciated.
