Just wondering what some big things are to cover before things get even more serious in our relationship? Also any advice that you might have for me or both of us. Also sorta off the subject, but shes a meteorology major. What kind of jobs in the aviation field could she possibly get? Do airlines have their own group of meteorologist? |
Whatever you tell her, tell her the truth and be honest about everything in the aviation industry. Tell her both the positives and the negatives about flying for a living. Show her some schedules, pay scales, and anything you can get you hands on that will help explain the lifestyle in terms she will understand. Don't exagerate or glorify the profession, just be frank...you will both appreciate it in the long run.
