Schooling for Flying
Hello all! I currently hold my private pilots certificate and have 98.7 hours TT. I am a senior in high school and I am wanting to purse a career in aviation specifically flying. I am wanting to become a corporate pilot and have a couple of questions for all of you.
I am going to a 4 year university next year. I will get all my ratings up to CFII or even my MEI. My parents are paying a majority of it, but I will most likely come out with around 10-15 thousand in debt. What is everyones input on coming out of college with debt while making a very low salary. I hope to go into a college with around 135 hours. That leaves me quite far ahead of the majority of kids in the aviation program. Let me know everyone's thoughts are about possible paths to getting a corporate gig after graduation. I know most companies wont hire until I have 1000+ hours. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again
