I realize you don't have much experience. That's okay, everyone's got to start somewhere. However, dreams and reality sometimes end up being quite a bit different.

You've got a little bit of exposure to flying at ERAU - good. Maybe it would be worthwhile to get some more just to continue to explore this career path you're considering. Continue to prepare, evaluate options and plan. Don't burn bridges. But, take some time this summer and even during senior year to take some flying lessons. Find out if you have some aptitude and like it as much as you think you do.

Good luck.
