Quote: My story on how I got into aviation is a long one. But like I said prior, sometimes its about who you know in aviation. But that doesn't matter. Fact is I got my PC-12 training paid for because there are some really big people that think I could accomplish the job a week after getting my instrument rating. Things fell through and I still got my cert so I'm happy =)


"There are market rates for specific pilot services, but there will always be the pilot that under values himself causing the market rate to drop."

"I have a difficult time justifying the investment of comerical-multi, then selling myself for 16K-23K per year. It is even worse when the job requires at least 1000 hours and starting pay is still only 20K. Starting pay at Silver airways is the same as someone working 40 hours a week earning $9/hour."

HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD . And the point I've been trying to make!
Still not understanding how you were planning on doing commercial flying without a commercial license
