Hey all. I am 16 and it is my plan to become an airline pilot as a career. I have gathered some basic information on how it is done, but any information i could get hold of would be much appreciated.
Also any info on the lifestyles of pilots (e.g. working hours etc) would also be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rhys
