Airline Pilot or Flight Instructor (EASA)

Hi All,

I keep reading all the hustles people went through and still been rejected after airline interviews in Europe. Now I am in the stage when I should decide what career path I should choose and I am thinking between FI(A) and FO at WizzAir.

I read that the whole recruitment process sometimes takes a year from application till get a rejection/acceptance by WizzAir hence I was thinking what if I spend the APS MCC training course fee and do a FI rating instead. Than later I just do the ASP MCC training when I have enough funds.

However I would like to be a pilot either FI or FO and not sure if an FI can make a proper living out of instructing in Europe.

How much can an FI monthly make in avarage? I know its hour specific but there must to be an average what most FI expects to make in a month.

do you have any advice or experience?

Thank you in Advance!
