Hi Nathaniel. Just a couple of things regarding to your post. Noticed you're 18, are yet to train but have a deal. That's great and see you're thinking sensibly about when to train. But must say, putting things like....
[QUOTE]In terms of ryanair, stay well clear[/QUOTE
...may or may not be correct, but it really is a bit of a sweeping statement. Look, all of us flying in the industry have differing opinions of this and that airline etc etc. My own opinions of Ryanair are my own but I think if you haven't even started training yet I'd be a little more reserved on such strong career advice. Myself, got a PPL 13 years ago, became hooked, then spent 10 years saving, scheming and scamming. Got a break, flew for air taxi, Coastguard and then moved onto an airline but really it was just fortune, bad fortune, good fortune and down right bloody timing of the unpredictable. And we're never out of the woods. My airline could go bust and I could be back driving a wagon
