I am currently faced with a decision. I go to a college prep school, and I need to decide what I want to do. I am currently 14, and I have been taking flight lessons since I was 11. I still don't have a huge number of flying hours, but my lessons are coming sooner. I am also interested in engineering, and I am highly skilled with computers. I also enjoy flying, and I currently fly a Cessna Skyhawk. My mother is pushing me towards a degree in aviation. However, I am also interested in engineering. I would like to work as a pilot for FedEx, but I want to know if I can get my license and still get a degree in engineering. What are the benefits of becoming a pilot? How would a degree in aviation help me (financially)? Is becoming a pilot a good career if you love flying? What is the business aspect of piloting like? I know I have many questions and I don't expect a definite answer, but I could really use some help steering me in the right direction. Thank you for your help.
