Well, you’re wrong.
You should start modular training now.
Reason being you have the luxury of no time pressure. The chance to do this without getting into crazy amounts of debt because the market is so stressed.
Modular you’re looking at 2-3 years, maybe 4 if you take it easy.
Then you’ll start your time building phase flying all sorts of odd jobs gaining flight time while you still hold a really world job to pay the bills.
Your time for zero to competitive in the job market is a realistic 5-7 years.
All of this COVID-19/20/21/22 is going to be long forgotten.
Starting training when the market is at its peak is asking for drama as you likely miss the boat as you won’t be ready and competitive for 2-3 years even if you accelerate through everything with a giant loan.
