Shane, sorry to be so blunt but why in the hell would you forgo college and start your career at 19?!! I love flying and it has been my dream for a long time as well but i would not give up all the fun i am having in college. Plus, you dont think it's gonna suck to have to go back to school in the middle of your career? I mean I know ive heard of a few majors such as CAL who dont require a 4-year degree, but ive heard that your chances are slim to none unless you have some serious connections. Dont get me wrong, I admire your hard work, but buddy, you dont want to be lookin back when you are forty saying "Damn, i missed the late-night parties, sleepin in everyday, and all the ladies."
I never gave up college. I'm taking online classes. I should be graduating in a year with a 4year. Probably will take longer now that I actually fly for the airlines. But, I still disagree. Why does a college degree make you a better pilot? Guess the airlines want to make sure they don't hire idiots who just have a high school? Like they're gonna hire a 2, 000hr pilot with A degree versus someone with 10, 000 hours with NO degree:p And when I'm 40, I should have around 20, 000 hours btw.... Assuming nothing bad happens:o |

Assuming nothing bad happens:o Funny story I was told the other day....A mutual famly friend was at an interview at National Airlines way back when with a group of 3 other guys. Our friend had about 4,000 hours with a 4 year degree and another guy in the group had a two year degree and over 12,000 hours. The 12,000 hour guy was the only one not hired out of the group. Everyone's guess was because he didn't have a 4 year degree. But you sound like you're on your way with it so no worries, eh! :) |
