Want to be a pilot
but I'm clueless about how to get started. I'm a sophomore in college and my major is marketing. I am interested in becoming a pilot with the intention of being an airline pilot someday (I know this will take forever, that's okay). I see you guys saying how hard a life it is and that the pay is terrible. I think I still want to do this. I have a couple questions though.
When you say "terrible pay", how terrible are we talking?
Does it matter that I'm not attending an aviation school?
At what point can I actually start to make enough money to get my own place?
And just any general knowledge on how I get started?
Also, what is it that you guys love (like?) about this field that made you want to do it? Any regrets?
EDIT: After posting this, I just noticed the thread above containing a bunch of info lol. I'll read through that for most of my answers. Please answer my last question though. Thanks in advance.
