If you want to be a pilot, I don't see how turning wrenches will help you get there faster than flying. |
-I did some rough figuring last night and I think I could do it....barely.
-The mech. job would only serve to stockpile money to be able to take on a low-paying flight job for a few years....but I don't think I'd enjoy life for a while.

Like $12/13 per flight hour...I think, I'll find out again.
And yes.
