I’m a military pilot. I have 1100 hours in single engine fighter aircraft. Likely going to get out in a few years. I have zero civilian flight qualifications.
I would like to fly for a major airline when I get out. I’m just trying to figure this whole transition out... the more I read the more questions I have.

Happy to be here!
Former USN aviator - flew in the SH-2F as an enlisted sensor operator and search-and-rescue swimmer, then got commissioned and flew the SH-60B and UC-12B (King Air 200). Currently flying the King Air 300 as a rotational contract pilot in Afghanistan and Iraq in support of US Army ground operations. Here to listen and learn, and contemplate what sounds fun next. Leaning toward aerial firefighting - either air attack or air tanker - but don't know anyone in that field with whom to network. Anyone want to mentor a wanna-be?

Hello Everyone!
Like most people, I've been fascinated with everything aviation since I was a child. I Enlisted in the U.S. Air Force and became an aircraft mechanic on fighters. Did that for about 11 years then became a C-17 Loadmaster of which I've been doing ever since. I'm also a licensed skydiver, so I jump out of perfectly good airplanes on my free time. I've come full circle now and started flight training with hopes to get into the airlines in the near future.
I learned about this site a few months ago and I've used it to get information to help start my new path to success. Looking forward to learning as much as I can, while I can!

Long time lurker, but just switched from another account name which wasn't anonymous enough to protect the guilty, for future posting purposes. 
Currently fly as CA on a corporate 737 and happy to have this fantastic resource to touch base with other folks from all walks as I look into other opportunities.
Fly safe!
