moving around
 

Bit of an easy one really, Can anyone tell me if any of the workforce has ever progressed to the world of flying, i.e paid for an ATPL and got a job. It would be nice to hear of this happening. Imyself tried with the raf and got told I didnt have the aptitude.

I know quite a few guys who have gone FE & several who are now pilots, in fact one who went GE to FE to pilot, posts on pprune fairly frequently.

I know of a couple of blokes who finished their apprenciceships then took up flying as a hoby with our flying club, then got sponsorship to ATPL. Good move if you ask me and I would consider doing similar, except that I am $^ years old and definately past it now!
