If you are thinking of a trade, electrician/plumber. Licenced trades, demand high & good pay Chippies, a dime a dozen.

You really should think of having a back up plan. Aviation is and even more so in the future will be a very un-stable industry. Your return on investment is appalling.

I'd love to know the figures and I'm guessing but I reckon the number of CPL's that make it to any sort of professional flying job (airline, RFDS, GA with a liveable wage) would be around 2-3/10?

It's a very hard nosed industry and you used to be rewarded/respected if you made it to the 'top.' Now???
