This is the question that I have asked myself many a time.....
Do I
really want to borrow a rediculous amount of money with no guarantee of work at the end, work unsociable hours when/if I do get a job, spend the next
9 years in the banks pocket, risk
everything I have and give up my very secure and rewarding career which has taken me 3 years to build????
F**k yes!!!!
Why?????
Only if you have a true love of aviation and flying can you understand why. As previosuly said, Flying is a drug and I'm well hooked I'm afraid.
Becoming a commercial pilot is my ultimate career and I won't stop until I get into that RHS. However don't confuse this for blind optomism! I've worked out and meticulously planned everything including a number of contingencies should anythign go tits up.
In my book as long as you plan for a bumpy ride to your first FO position then I can't see any reason why not!
