SydneyAeros,
QNH 1013.2 has got the right idea I reckon... Go where
you want, when
you want, with who
you want to.
Still, if you do decide to get into Aviation as your profession, there are pretty good times right now, compared to the last 7-10 years at least (but that's not to say it's easy, or that it will stay that way!)
CR.
Good luck whatever you choose...
