Where to go next?
 

Hi all!
I been wanting to be part of aviation, since I was 10yrs old.
Born at the border(Mexico-USA) on the Mexican side :-) 4 blocks!!!
Colombian citizen and pretty soon I ll have to choose one,
I believe, since I ll be a US citizen soon.
I have a 1yr in the Colombian police! (Mandatory)
I have a 1yr in the Colombian Air Force(voluntary)
Register with the US armed forces, if ever need me!
This Friday with a little bit of luck, I will pass
My powerplant OnP, already an A; so soon an A&P.
Have around 350hrs tt and didn't take the OnP for my CPL
A year ago, when I was ready, at least according to my logbook, because I wanted to be 1000%: I can say after 32 yrs of wanting to be
A pilot: I am a Proffessional commercial Pilot,
It means a lot to me to be where I am today.
Soon should have my CPL(O&P pending)
Right after my CPL I have great interest in helicopter CPL add on!

To sum it all up:

I would love to find the "dream job" in corporate and stay there till 100yrs old!
But reality is: bills need to be paid and dream jobs are just that!

Should I try to get a flying job, whatever it may be:
Banner,jump,crop,Alaska,CP,who knows, till I can get enough hrs to get a decent pay!( to me at the moment is 40k to 60k)

Is it better to get an A&P job then switch to the flight dept?

Should I pursue a helicopter job better instead? (No idea what they are, besides emt ,police or oil rigs, all cool gigs if u ask me.

Did the A&P and will do the heli to be open to opportunities!
However I don't have a BA nor plan on getting it, if I had one I'd would have joined the USAF reserves

Any thoughts, recommendations, suggestions, strategies.

Willing to travel far... Asia far lol

Thank you guys, I am aware of is a big decision but your thoughts highly appreciated.

Well...you're gonna need 1,500 and an ATP before a part 121 carrier will even look at you so...

Forgot to mention
CFI is def in my path...

If you want corporate A&P for sure!!

Get in with some G550 flight department somehow, fly on the side and see where it goes.

The good Corp jobs are 100 percent who you know.

KVNY, KBUR and KSJC are hotspots for this stuff

Been realizing that, A&P is going to help me get my foot In the door.

And mostly, like you said: as an A&P I will get to know the bosses and should get a good network list.

Starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Thank you for your comment.
