Might see you round the ramp sometime. |
Thanks for all advices. I just learned to to fly around a point yesterday. It was fun and very enjoyable. Looking forward to fly again tomorrow.
I think i will sell the house and attend ATP or FBO like Monarch full time. The only problem is the chance to get hired as CFI and get to Regional from Monarch is slim. With ATP, it is big money but more chance to get an interview. Being a pilot is not as easy as I thought. When I first graduated from LSU with a bachelor degree and working as respiratory. I made 35K first year/ 45k on second years, and 50+ on 3 years and so...
The neg points about pilots that concern me are: it is expensive to train, and you don't quaranty the job, airlines industry is unstable, time away from family/kid/wife are big sacrifice to me. I don't care about sleepiing in new bed all the time. I can handle eating lunch out of a bag all the time. I am ok with pay cut and ok to climb the ladder. The thing is if I invest all of my savings into ATP and not quaranty a job. It is a scary thought that killing my dream right now.
Please advise .
