Greetings.

I'm new to this forum, but have read much of it and am very pleased with what I've found. This seems to be substantive forum with good information and contributors.
I'll inaugurate my presence on this forum with the standard question. I am 18 years old, starting my second year of college (English major) and am currently a student pilot with a little under 50 hours. I hope to finish up my PPL soon. I've always wanted to be a pilot, and I decided many years ago that I want to fly for FedEx. I'm looking for the best way to get to that point, and more specifically the best way to get a flying job that will serve well to expedite my route to FedEx. I was offered ROTC scholarships by the military, but those were promptly revoked when I mentioned my color vision deficiency. As such, I'm going the civilian route, and am currently looking at Delta Connection Academy in hopes that I will be able to quickly begin building jet time. Does anyone have any thoughts to share on that? Also, what it be more advantageous for me to start with an actual cargo airline, IE Mountain Air, or is flight time flight time?
Any advice is greatly appreciated and well-received. Thanks for the time and attention.
