Thanks for the help!!
Just to clarify, the link was just an "example".. i'm a long long way from buying, but I want to start gaining information as early as possible as there seems to be a lot to it all.
I'm a bit confused about the licesnsing and how you could fly for a living, is it hard to find jobs as a pilot? What excactly does the CPL/ATPL allow? What would the routes be just to fly private business planes, or commercial airlines planes? Do the hours gained flying a small plane really count towards getting a licence to fly for an airline? I dont think I'm interested in airline flying, what other options are there? I know money is an issue, but putting money to one side, would buying a plane and gaining hours that way be good? Is there any other way to "make money" as you're gaining hours? For higher jobs, such as airline pilot, can you just take the licence, so you dont need any other 'qualifications'?
This is all really confusing...
Adding to my previous post
You said you dont think the oppoprtunities exist in Europe, do they exist somewhere else? I wouldn't have any problems relocating anywhere in the world really..
