How is everyone today :ok:. Basically I have put a plan in place to start my voyage towards a cockpit......but I would like opinions/advice because let's face it, getting an airline job isn't easy and keeping one is just as hard.
First off Im 19 years old living in Ireland. Next week I am starting an apprentiship (spelling) as an Electricion. I decided to do this because if I ever loose my medical I will have something to fall back on and plus the money is very good. 600 euro a week in your third year and 800 in your fourth. The apprentiship will take four years and will get my PPL durring this time.
At the age of 23 I will reach the four year mark with a PPL and whatever money I saved. I will then take out a loan for the remainding amount of money needed and undergo an integerated course @ a good school (mabey flight EFT?).
So is this logical or am I looking up my own a$$? I know this might sound like a stupid question but I want to make sure I am taking a reliable route.
So please any critisism and opinions would be very gratefull. :ok:
