Hello everyone,
I'm a junior in high school, and am about 99% sure that I want to be a pilot. So, as I'm getting ready to work everything out for when I graduate high school, I'm thinking a lot about where to do my pilot training. There are so many options, and so far I'm condsidering the following:
1. Getting a degree as a Professional Pilot at a University
2. Getting my CPL, and then going to college
3. Go to college, and afterwards get my CPL
4. Enlist in the Air National Guard and get my pilot training there
My main question is, what would you recommend? Is there anyone here who got their pilot training through the Air National Guard? If so, what was it like, and what do I have to do?
If I were to get my CPL independent from a college or the military, would it be a good idea to do so in Australia or New Zealand? How hard is it to pay back student loans after I actually work as a pilot?
Sorry about all those questions, but I figured you might be able to answer at least a few of them. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
