16 Year Old Aspiring Pilot

Hi, I am Michael. I'm a 16 year old residing in Sydney! I have an extreme aspiration for aviation, and I've been lurking for a while.

I know how hard it is to become a pilot, and how much of a brutal game this industry is. I have a plan, but I'd like to share it here first so I can get a few tips or maybe some criticism.

As I am just about to start year 11, I am also starting my flight school next week. I'm thinking of doing that for 2 years, begin my career there and once I finish Year 12, I will enrol in AAPA in Wagga. It's a Pilot Academy, and I can complete the rest of my training up there for 2 years.

I want to start my flight school now so I can gain some sort of experience and understanding of operating an aircraft and gaining basic aeronautical knowledge. What do you guys think?
