I am 30 and looking to move jobs, I have been looking into becoming a Pilot, for some time now.
Fix wing does not "float my boat" as much as rotary.
I am in the UK and the cost saving in going to Florida are quite a lot.
I would love to work in EMS but north sea work would be good too.
I have been reading about how so many flight schools just want your money and you should only pay them as and when, never up front.
What happens if you fail an exam, can you just retake it?
If/when I pass I plan to do my IR. If/when I have that can I get a job 150-200H?
What sort of money would I expect to earn?
Can I build up my hours doing navigations or something in a fixed wing if I trained in rotary?
Thanks guys
Peter
