I just started... I don't have my heart set on being an "airline pilot" Since I have some years ahead of me, I hope I can find some ways to have an adventure out of flying before I get settled in. For an example, flying a DC-6 in Alaska (like Flyordie) would be quite an adventure...I have however, my heart set on not jumping into a regional right after getting my commercial (if there was such a hiring boom when my time comes).
As far as a career goes, I would like to work for a place that has been around for sometime and has a good reputation, and is secure for the most part. NJA, FlexJet, CS, World, UPS, Fedex, sounds all good in the U.S. I also would very much like to work for CX as well...Who knows I might even go back home and fly for our national career...Don't know yet!!
