Remember that in this country you don't need to go to a "flight academy"


I went to college and flew on my time off. You don't need to major in flying to become a pilot, trust me on that one. Hell, trust all of us on that one.

Don't buy into the fact that you need to go to a big name school for all the right curriculum and this and that. The way things work here is that the old man at the local airport who's had his CFI forever can get in his little cub and teach you to fly. That's how it is, and I'm glad it is that way, it makes it so aviation is available to the masses (money aside)


Again, don't buy into the pilot major or big name pilot school=betterjob trick.
