Do you really want to do this....

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!
