Stay in Tech as Data Engineer, avoid pilot career switch.

The current tech market, especially for Data Engineers, offers better stability and potential long-term growth compared to the aviation market, which a pilot's comment describes as 'ass'. The significant financial and time investment (₹60-80L, 2-3 years) for pilot training, coupled with a poor job market, makes pivoting highly risky and likely a worse opportunity than leveraging existing tech skills.
