Pilot Training Suggestions
Hello. I am 17 and have completed my High School. I had decided to pursue my career as an Airline Pilot. I live in United Arab Emirates and would love to work here , with an UAE based airline ( Emirates or Etihad ). I have got two options with me, Flight Training Services (FTS) and Johannesburg School of Flying (JSF). Both of them offer zero to CPL (with minimum hours) for around 30,000 USD.
It would be helpful If I can get the answers for the following :
1. Do I really need a university degree ?
2. Reviews on the above mentioned flight schools
3. After getting the CPL with minimum hours , what are the options available as a pilot ? What are the various opportunities available to complete 1500 hours for ATPL ?
Any other suggestion on hour building , flight schools etc are most welcomed
Looking forward to your kind cooperation.
Thank you
