There is a post here about RYR and "older" pilots. I think it should be a must read for anyone who is about to commence training after the age of 30.
But i would like to ask, career wise, is it so bad to fly turboprops untill you retire?
So say i commence my modular training (no need for debt) and end up afterwards (flying GA in between) at a company that operates turboprops (dont mind when) will i be able to have a decent salary untill i retire? (pilots, knock wood, retire at 65 right?). When i say decent it means that i will be able to pay for rent and later on support my kids to university.
I am asking this because as i am not a professional pilot i see that everyone wants to fly jets. Is that big the diference in terms of salary from the turboprops?
