I'm in the military and I've got an opportunity to become a flight engineer or get out of the military. I think becoming an FE will give me a greater technical knowledge, therefore; I'll be a better pilot. My goal is to become an airline pilot so I want to know if you think it's worth my time or should I just focus on becoming a pilot. I'm thinking I would have an easier time finding a pilot job with a FE certificate. Am I right? If it were up to you, would you rather hire a pilot with a flight engineer certificate or does it really matter?
