Options for 2nd Career in flying?
I am getting close to retiring from my current position in a manufacturing plant. Been here 31 years. Can get full retirement in 4 years. I will turn 50 in August this year.
Would love to start a second career flying.
Advice? Thoughts? Pros/Cons?
Really not interested in greeting in WalMart.
A little bit about me:
I have a B.S. in Electrical Eng Tech from Purdue
I have worked as an Engineer and Systems Analyst
I just started taking lessons and have about 27hrs in.
For the 2nd career:
*I won't need insurance
*Have no desire to make huge bucks
*Part-time work would be ok. Maybe preferable. Not real sure on this one. I just know that if I get in the mood to go hang around on a beach somewhere I just want to be able to take off and go. I am very active in my church and I will continue that.
*I live in the Indianapolis area and want to stay there.
Any thoughts? Comments? suggestions? Help?
