Thanks for the input. I have a plan in place, i'm going to wait about another year before I start seriously taking lessons. I plan to pace myself to get through the training in about 1 year - 1 1/2 years.
Hopefully moving slower will allow me to retain more of what I learn. At that point, I'd like to get into instructing, do that for a year or two and build up some time, then i'd like to go into the regionals.
After the Thread that I have opened up, it seems that the veil of mystery is beginning to unfold in regard to the airline world. I'm not soo certain that commercial flying is the best way to go. Currently I'm single and have no kids....so life is easy in that regard, but I can't honestly say I want to go into my 30's with an unstable job outlook, and Sh*ty pay.
