Three tips to become a successful pilot.

Don't get in a relationship, don't have kids, don't buy a house.

Be careful going into GA in debt. Jobs are not only low paying but the industry is volatile with companies going under every so often. If you can, try and take a few years unpaid leave if your coming from a different industry if your in that position. Some companies offer extended leave provided you have been there a while and on good terms. I wasn't aware it was an option until I dug a little deeper, I was given 2 years unpaid leave (Retail Head Office Job).
