Career change like Gary



Hi Everyone,

I have a major dilema like Gary. I am 30 year of age and i have been speaking to several companies in the UK and USA for advice.

My end game if all going well is to be a airline pilot but the problem i have is everyone just wants to sell me a course.

I have spoken to Phoenix east aviation in Daytona, Delta Connections in Orlando, CTC McAlpine UK, CabAir, etc etc.

The problem i have encountered is FAA/JAA. Most of the US courses are FAA exept Delta who offer JAA over a 14 month period at a vastly reduced cost compared to the UK.

Can someone please advise me on the qualifications i should be looking to gain and what your feeling are on US courses.

Many thanks,

The confused one.
