Do you see it giving me that much of a leg up? I realize things are constantly changing but if anyone has any advice, its greatly appreciated. I've asked some of my friends in the industry but considering how new they are to it I consider their input somewhat anecdotal and wanted to get some more opinions. Thanks.
Always do anything to separate yourself from the crowd. What’s a couple more thousand. Don’t stop there, however. There was a time where you needed to be a community volunteer to become a 121 pilot. Volunteer. Become a coach. Hell, get elected to city council.
Be different. Don’t just be a 1500/cfi.
