I once gave an IFR checkout to a FEDEX MD-80 pilot who commuted from here (central coast of California) to Atlanta (if I recall correctly, but it could have been Memphis)! He was one of the best pilots I've ever had the pleasure of evaluating. I would think that pilots that also fly on their days off tend to be the better pilots--so what you're saying makes all adds up for me.

Hang around here and you're sure to get "the bug." If the desire is great enough, it can be done.
