A word of advice. Aviation employment is cyclical in nature and tends to follow the economic cycle closely. That runs in 7-10 year waves. We're probably about 18 months to 2 years away from the next dip. Note - I am not an economist, just someone who's been in the aviation industry for nearly 3 decades.

In other words - treat the flying school spiel of "hiring boom/big retirement/big demand" with a very large pinch of salt.
