uhuhuh!! ...what an excellent idea!!.
then what???,... if it is to hear:"Sir, how many hours of eavy jet do you have in the last 6 months? are you current on the Airbus?"
OR
"do you have 60'000$ for a type rating, we do not employ GA pilot??"
don't take it bad but what you suggest is over ,
... then years pass, and what do you do when 40-45years old?still flight instructor at 6$/hour.Worked 12 hours a day in a c152?
My ex-flight instructors have no life, no girlfriend, no house, no money, and a stupid job.to old now to join an airline, to many hours with bad habits .no money for a type rating,...he is screwed!do you want a career with that?
At least Mac does not ask you money in front, they train you for free, uniform and badge paid... and you can become manager.
stay away from aviation and have a good life!!
