If this is your passion, then I say follow your dreams. Just be realistic in your expectations.  |
Grew up flying. On track for my PPL as we speak. It has always been a dream of mine to fly for a living. It has been said that there will be a large demand for commercial pilots within the next 5-7 years as the average age of most pilots are nearing retirement. We will see what happens.
