Listen, guys, Patrick Winter, age 21, of Seattle Washington, is clearly more interested in sex and family than in flying. Quite right, too.
Patrick, me old son, get yourself a qualification as an aircraft engineer. Or an apprenticeship at Boeing. Go and visit your local Seaplane club, talk to the seaplane pilots. Visit a gliding club, if there is one. Don't try to earn money flying, that way you end up as a bus driver, trying to chat up the Cabin Crew when desperate, and if you have a family back in Seattle, they'll know, you end up divorced anyway and only get to see your kids if you are lucky in the settlement.
I bet the divorce rate for airline pilots considerably exceeds that of any other profession. Choices made now at 21? males, in my experience, don't reach maturity until 30, at best.
