A Rewarding Career? You Tell Me
Do you enjoy travel? Are you looking for a career that will allow you to do so? Perhaps you should think about becoming a pilot. If you do so, you'll have to think about what it takes to become a pilot, things like schooling, the demands of actually being a pilot, and what it takes to make it to the top as well along with the rewards of doing so. The first step in becoming a pilot is your schooling. Most aeronautical colleges will advise you to go to a two year school where you earn your two year associates degree in general studies. These colleges require educated people. You can't go from high school straight to piloting school. Once you've completed that you have your choice of aeronautical schools around the world. A couple of the better known schools are Embry Riddle and Spartan
This means you are flying to the middle of no where in the middle of the night. Let me put it to you this way, by the time you're in your late thirties to early fifties you are flying jet planes to places like Los Angeles, Boston, New York, and perhaps overseas when you feel like it making between one hundred to three hundred thousand a year. After a while it gets better though. Most schools hire their students on as instructors after they graduate. Once there you will spend the next two years learning how to fly single and double engine Cessna's and earning your piloting license. Now you're in the commercial industry and you're working for, lets say Delta or American Airlines, you turn you're focus towards working your way up the ladder because as of right now you're only making twenty to thirty thousand a year. Congratulations, you're flying thirty to fifty passenger planes that have only two to three turbo-prop engines. Now you're a pilot but the major airlines won't hire you. In doing so, while helping other students learn, the pilots are earning flight hours to put towards better licenses and better planes. Once you've done your time and earned your commercial license you're ready for the commercial airliner industry. Pilots that go to the top and stay there till their fifties retire earlier than most as millionaires. This is because you have to earn more flight hours. It's like a much more technical drivers ed class. The higher the rank you are the first pick of flight whens and whers you get.
