the best time to train is now!! when there is no jobs, so when the jobs do come along in about 2 years time you will be there all trained up ready to go, not start a 2-3 year training course then the market slows down once your finished.
Absolutely! I started in 2001, and was doing my PPL on September 11th of the same year! Everyone said I was wasting my time and money, and the industry was dead for 10 years. I got employed as an instructor in 2004 and then as an FO on a 737 in 2005. Then they were crying out for pilots. In 2012 I believe the same will happen. No recruits due recession, expansion due recovery.
Someone said once "It's better to have tried and failed, than not to have tried at all"
Live your dream. Don't ask, don't dither, don't worry, JUST DO IT!!!!
