My wife is in her 2nd year of med school as well, so I have a somewhat better perspective of what this guy may be looking at.

He has basicly two options

1 Continue with Med school and finish his MD. Work in a field full of fustrating beauracy, long hours and enormous responsibility. Pay is good, but not as much as you think especially after you start paying off loans.

2 Quit med school and train to be a pilot. Work in a field full of fustrating beauracy, long hours and enormous responsibility. Pay starts off very poor, and gradually improves to average, especially after you start paying off loans.

I would recomend toughing out Med school, and flying your own plane later.
