Don't do it.
Go be a doctor, fly in your spare time. I would never get into this again, in fact I'm trying to get out. The actual job is incredibly mundane, sitting around starting at lcd displays and combined witth the job security, social aspects and the meager chance of gettting a career started in the first place mean don't go there. It was, for me, a pyrrhic victory "making it" in the airline industry.
