Freight or Commercial?
As a PPL student at the moment, I want to get into a good flying career. Comercial Airlines take my interest, but I get the feeling that freight may be more fun, interesting and varied, and also has less Jo Public to handle!
I just have a few questions as freight flying really is not greatly marketed (which is one of the attractions)
What is it like to fly freight? Are you treated well? Is it all night flights? Are the Hours really long, or are they similar to Commercial? Do you get to see places you wouldn't normally see in the commercial world? Are there stop overs in other countries? Are there many female pilots in this industry (not as though I mind being surrounded by men, I am just curious!)?
And last and most of all, do you enjoy it?
