Best way forward for 15 year old .
Hi ,
Been loitering reading a lot over the last few weeks but just joined today. Apologies if in the wrong placem
My son just turned 15 ( we are Midlands based UK ) and he wants to be a commercial pilot. He has been in air cadets etc a long while and done some 737 simulators etc and is hooked.
Anyway he will have to do a Modular route to become a commercial pilot and work to save up in-between. We are aware of costs and etc and he's still not put off.
So my question ( sorry for the waffle ) at age 15 is it worth him starting lessons for his ppl now so he can qualify at 16/17 or is it better to save up and wait until he is actually 16/17.
We are trying to help him as much as possible andd our funds are limited , not looking for something cheap and cheerful as I don't feel that's always best but I want whatever we do to actually be useful for him and count towards his goals.
Thanks for the help.
