After watching the movie TOP GUN at 3 yrs old i knew that i wanted to become a pilot. since then aviation has been a huge part of my life. my question to all you professional pilots out there...IS IT WORTH IT???
I am about 3 semesters away from graduating with a degree in Geography and have just started my instrument phase of training. with all of the troubles that the industry is going through right now i am wondering if i have chosen the right career for myself.
Would You choose a pilot career if you could do it again? Thanks for your help!!!
I complain a lot, and I mean a lot but today I was at the super-market and there was almost 45-minute lines to check out, I got really annoyed, but then like a ray of sunshine
I said to myself, "These poor SOB's only have off 2-days a week they have to take care of everything on there measly 2-days off a week, it actually put a lot in perspective, but then again I was using Food-stamps............haah j/k (G/F paid muwhaaaaaaaaaaa).
I am trying to figure out how I can save $5,000.00 for a Vortech Supercharger on 2nd year F/O pay , if I had a real job, probably wouldnt be an issue
