Yes, talk to some pilots. A job at small local airport would be a great way to learn about aviation and maybe do some networking.

Up front, there are some serious drawbacks to professional flying, and even more so in the airlines in the last ten years. You will need to educate yourself extensively and make a very informed decision before you commit the time and financial resources to flight training. These forums have some good info, this thread in particular:

Also you need to figure out if you like flying...go take a lesson or two at the local airport. Work on a private pilot license and then go fly around some for fun. If you still like it, only then think about a career.

Oh yeah, and finish college.
