At 16 I want to get some things planned before it's too late to make them.
Damn, I'm feeling lazy by comparison after reading that...

That family you've got in HK wouldn't be any help in getting resident status? Don't take it too hard - it seems most of the people on the forum got to CX by going the longer way; through general aviation, followed by airlines and/or military. At 16, your "plan" doesn't need to go too far beyond getting your basic licenses. I started flying at 17, just finished college, am slogging it out in the US regionals, and I would consider myself a serious contender for CX in the next couple of years. Work in MS Flight Sim's a great start, but not exactly resume fodder. You're already way ahead of the game, now just get out there and start flying some bug smashers! The 744's will have to wait for now.
