An excellent post may i say!!! if only there were more posts like that on this forum!!!!!
I second everything they said in that post, so much as i think you should read it a couple of times to make sure you understand everything that was said... two key points are that dont do an aviation degree,,,, a degree of course but not aviation...(closing to many doors on yourself!!!!))
I did mechanical Engineering myself...plenty of jobs out there for engineers at the minute and if you really wanted to do something aviation related, i did composite materials focused in my degree which is quite topical in aircraft at the minute!!! thats if you like though...
the second point is that they had 2000hrs tt some many hundred multi engine, and still sending out CV's how do you think flight school grads will get jobs with just 200TT... not for happening in this current situation... But be optimistic it will turn around sonner rather than later....
think about your options, your obiviously still very young, so i will give you advice as many of my regional pilot friends did to me """"Keep as many doors open to yourself as possible""" it will stand to you in the near future...
All the best with your studies with whatever you decided but choose carefully.... the ratio between aerospace engineers and jobs is quite tight... in other words there are far more engineers than jobs!!!
best of luck wit future decisions
