Hi there,
I'm hoping I can get some good advice as others have gotten on here, I'm in a rather unique situation and curious how you guys/gals would field this one. I'm 26 and working as a construction engineer for a large corporation, been here since I graduated from Colorado State. My father is a pilot for a large airline and is the first person I always hear cautioning me on a move like this. Being 26 I may be a bit older than most starting but I've saved well and will start with 80 to 90 k in savings for this journey.
I don't romanticize the job, I understand I will never probably have the career my dad did but at the same time you are flying and I prefer the flying schedule and lifestyle to the 9 to five.
So this being my situation and believe me I'm not looking for sympathy what would be the best way to get in, get my time and start making my way to the heavies? Local FBO or Fast track ATP style?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
